Those are completely different.

any - https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#any - Return True if any element of the iterable is true.

Any - A special kind of type is Any. A static type checker will treat every type as being compatible with Any and Any as being compatible with every type.

    error: Function "builtins.any" is not valid as a type  [valid-type]
    note: Perhaps you meant "typing.Any" instead of "any"?
The typing exercise should say Any rather than any, and similarly for other type names.
