Developers are discussing the growing normalisation of AI-generated code review, where an automated report is already waiting when a pull request is opened — in the example, three minor findings and an approval. The debate centres on whether these instant AI verdicts add value or create a false sense of scrutiny, with critics noting code can be approved without anyone truly understanding it.
