Using AI secretly in an interview setting where you were told the constraints excluded them or the interview required everything to be on the screen share even if they were permitted is fraudulent behavior. It’s not much different than having a surrogate interviewee at that point. You’d only being doing it to deceive the interviewer.

Open source contributions is a bad metric for interviewing too. People have lives outside a computer, if they aren’t doing open source contributions in their free time outside of work I wouldn’t hold that against them. If someone has those that’s great and I’d take a look, but I’m not disqualifying someone else for not working for free. Someone doing OSS as an interviewing badge of honor is a chump in my book. At least do it for principled reasons.
