I don’t see much benefit from the disclosure alone. Ultimately, this is code that needs to be reviewed. There is going to continue to be more and more AI assisted code generation, to the point where we see the same level of adoption of these tools as "Autocomplete". Why not solve this through tooling? I have had great effect with tools like Greptile, Cursor's BugBot and Claude Code.

Sure it needs to be reviewed. But the author does more than just reviewing, they help the person submitting the PR to improve their PR. If the other side is an AI, it can save them some time.
