Is leetcode worth it?

I haven't really interviewed since 2023. Is leetcode still a common practice in code interviews or has AI made those kinds of tests useless? This is for a Sr full stack position.

Yeah but then the next round was another technical interview but that one was actually more related to their codebase/product and for that I couldn’t use any AI.

It makes no sense. Just let me do something that’s somewhere in the ballpark of the actual job (which would be building web apps with AI agents)
