The Programmer Identity Crisis

As an aside, I've been using copilot code review before handing off any of my code to colleagues. It's a bit pedantic, but it generally catches all the most stupid things I've done so that the final code review tends to be pretty smooth.

I hate to suggest that the fix to LLM slop is more LLMs, but in this case it's working for me. My coworkers also seem to appreciate the gesture.

It’s fascinating idea, though, to invert the process and have devs develop and LLMs do the code reviews. Might be more productive in the long run.

I agree that LLMs are great for a cursory review, but crucially, when you ask copilot to review your code, you actually read and think about everything copilot tells you in the response. The biggest issues arise because people will blindly submit AI-generated code without reading or thinking about it.
