Unfortunately those are also better discussed with LLMs.

I recently had to refresh on some algorithms and some manual coding for an interview where using LLM is forbidden. It was super fun, I forgot how fun solving software puzzles can be!

We really need a shift to the left in politics and a way to redistribute the productivity gains this technology allows.
