For anyone following along in the comments here. Code Rabbit's CEO posted some of the details today, after this post hit HN.

The usual "we take full responsibility" platitudes.

I would like to see a diff of the consequences of taking full vs half-hearted responsibility.

I’m sure an “intern” did it.

I wonder how many of these intern-type tasks LLMs have taken away. The type of tasks I did as a newbie might have seemed not so relevant to the main responsibilities but they helped me get institutional knowledge and generally get a feel of "how things work" and who/how to talk to make progress. Now the intern will probably do it using LLMs instead to talking to other people. Maybe the results will be better but that interaction is gone.

		I think there is an infinite capacity for LLMs to be both beneficial, or negative. I look back at learning and think, man, how amazing would it have been if I could have had a personalized tutor helping guide me and teach me about the concepts I was having trouble with in school. I think about when I was learning to program and didn’t have the words to describe the question I was trying to ask and felt stupid or an inconvenience when trying to ask to more experienced devs. Then on the flip side, I’m not just worried about an intern using an LLM. I’m worried about the unmonitored LLM performing intern, junior, and ops tasks, and then companies simply using “an LLM did it” as a scapegoat for their extreme cost cutting.

I would love to know the acceptable version.

Something not copy-pasted from an LLM would be more acceptable.

		I feel like that would also be unacceptable.
