I don’t know what is Altman’s experience, but almost nobody writes software character by character for many years. Context code completion is present for about 30 years already (take a look at Delphi or VS6 from 90ties). Refactoring tooling is about 20 years old too (see Eclipse or other Java IDEs). So if he says character by character, it is just silly. When you write prompt you also write is char-by-char right? :).

They have Mastodon instance. I don't know why it's not advertised.

I wonder if they are sure that similar exercises weren’t in the learning set for AI. Such competitions have usually kind of patterns for exercises and people usually learn to them by resolving a large number of exercises to catch the pattern.
