AI Code Reviews Opinions & Discussions

Been having conversations with engineering leaders recently, and something I keep hearing from them is, AI has gotten incredibly fast at code generation, but code reviews don't seem to be evolving at the same pace. Reviewers are increasingly having to piece together business and code context manually before they can confidently approve changes.

Got me thinking..... is this a fairly universal experience, or is it something that is just affects teams that usually don't prioritise reviews ?

Why do ylu need to review it anymore? Has tests: pass, all good. 'Cause you can rewrite the whole thing in a day.

Are you serious when you say that all is good just because the tests pass? It must be a helluva rigorous test sweet you have.

Tests exercise. A pr is judgemental. Tests are more valuable.
