AI isn't just helping us write code anymore—it's competing with and even outperforming top human programmers. In this episode, we take a deep dive into the groundbreaking research that’s shaking up the competitive programming world. From OpenAI’s O-series models to the rise of self-learning coding AIs, we explore how these Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) are mastering complex problem-solving, ranking in the top 10% on Codeforces, and even challenging the best at the International Olympiad in Informatics.But it doesn’t stop there. These AI systems aren’t just theoretical powerhouses—they're tackling real-world software engineering tasks, outperforming previous AI models on platforms like HackerRank Astra and SWE-bench. So what does this mean for the future of human programmers? Are we headed for competition—or collaboration?Join us as we discuss the evolution of AI in coding, its potential impact on the industry, and the big question: Is AI the ultimate coding partner or a game-changing disruptor? Buckle up—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.Link: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2502.06807
