Columbia Suspends Student for Sharing Disciplinary Hearing Materials

Chungin 'Roy' Lee, creator of the controversial AI tool Interview Coder, plans to relocate to San Francisco and continue his work despite a year-long suspension.

• Chungin 'Roy' Lee was suspended from Columbia University for one year after sharing unauthorized materials from a disciplinary hearing on social media.
• The suspension was not directly tied to the creation of his AI tool, Interview Coder, but to his violation of university policies by publishing hearing content online.
• Interview Coder, designed to assist job candidates in bypassing technical coding interviews, has drawn criticism for its ethical implications.
• Lee had previously been placed on academic probation for facilitating academic dishonesty after demonstrating the tool's capabilities in a video.
• Following the suspension, Lee announced plans to move to San Francisco and continue developing Interview Coder, which reportedly generates significant revenue.
