Human review is about learning and there's an implied social contract in that someone is giving you their time to make you better. It isn't necessarily necessary but replacing it with AI shows a fundamental misunderstanding of why

Watching this from outside the US, what gets me is not that corruption exists (shocker!) but how brazen they are with doing all of this in the open. Somehow it seems to be working in their favour as it appears to be normalising such behavio

I'm with you on all apart from code review. Our team has tried a couple tools. Most of the issues highlighted are either very surface level or non-issues. When it reviews code from the less competent team members, it misses deeper issu
