I use AI to code review my personal projects. There's no downside - I ignore what I don't like and take the suggestions that make sense. Most of the suggestions are good and it found a ton of little bugs over time.

I think that someone who's radically opposed to any use of AI is simply a poor developer.

There's no downside for you.

You said it yourself - you have the knowledge and ability to know what to ignore and keep what makes sense. But that's because you spent years actually writing and understanding code.

But the magic wand of AI is absolutely wreaking havoc with juniors engineers' ability to understand complex code bases and software engineering fundamentals. How will the engineers of tomorrow know what to keep and what to reject if all they've ever known is "you are a principal engineer. read this Jira ticket and build a solution. ultrathink".
