I let candidates use the Internet (except AI tools) during coding interviews. All I care is if given a problem can they do the necessary research to solve it. It usually involves making them use a library which they are not already familiar with. This is more than enough for most of the programming jobs.

I think this is a continuum:

I let candidates use X during coding interviews.

I've personally seen this evolve over the past 20 years

Whiteboard --> Text editor --> IDE --> ...?

Maybe "AI Coding Assistant" is next.
