I've given a few interviews with take home screening small projects that I have been able to identify very quickly were majority generated, I usually don't mind it too much but when I asked why they chose certain patterns or why they went with their approach they couldnt give any "true" answer a week later.

I feel that smaller things like syntax etc make perfect sense. But for larger things that involve a slightly higher complexity it becomes a bit grey. I likenit personally to writing. When I write things down as I'm trying to work things out or even trying to learn something I find I retain the data so much better and have a better picture in my mind of what's going on. That might just be personal preference for learning but if I copy straight from claud I know 100% I'm not going to remember anything about it the next day.
