Scaling Code Review When AI Writes the Software
The episode begins by addressing a stark new reality for engineering teams: AI agents are writing code at an unprecedented pace, leading to pull requests that are 150 percent larger and review times that have doubled. Deejay and Jaime Jorge unpack this sudden shift, noting how the friction of software development is being removed faster than ever before. However, this frictionless environment introduces a dangerous side effect known as automation bias, where developers might blindly merge massive blocks of AI-generated code simply because a machine wrote it.
