I have not encountered anything more soulcrushing in my entire career than having to spend hours going over LLM generated slop that was vomitted out by a contractor in Pakistan that doesn’t give a shit, to only have the review itself be fed in as a re-prompt, and get the same 2000 line ball of spaghetti back with even more issues and going back and forth until I just give up and approve it.

No, AI code review doesn’t help. Claude can’t even give me correct line numbers 80% of the time, literally just makes them up, and more than half of it is false positive BS anyway.
