I prefer take home, and then having a conversation about what is done, reasoning, etc.

It feels like the age of AI has made take home coding exercises obsolete. I still have not found a good replacement.

the point of the take-home is not to assess the answer, but use it as an anchor to discuss the how / why / what else? type questions. If someone used AI for just the results this is obvious. If they used AI to get the answers AND learn / understand what wa produced, that's probably the new reality
