You're absolutely right but I wonder if we'll have to ditch the traditional code review for something else, perhaps automated, if this agentic way continues.

Claude! Get off HN and get back to work.

AI can actually review PRs decently when given enough context and detailed instructions. It doesn't eliminate the PR problem, but it can catch a lot of bugs and it can add comments to parts of the code that look questionable to instruct humans to manually verify.

You can also force the agent to write up a summary of the code change, reasoning, etc, fortunately, which can help with review.
