And how do you propose filtering them out? There's a reason why college students are using LLMs, they're getting better grades for less effort. I don't assume you're proposing selecting students with worse grades on purpose?



I wouldn't hire based on grades.

I think what the junior did is a reason to fire them (then you can try again with better selection practices). Not because they use code from LLMs, but that they don't even try to understand what it is doing. This says a lot about their attitude to programming.


One way to filter them out, relevant to this thread, would be to let them go if they brazenly turned in work they did not create and do not understand.
