To extend that: If the LLM is the author and the responsible engineer is the genuine first reviewer, do you need a second engineer at all?

Typically in my experience one review is enough.

More eyes are better, but more importantly code review is also about knowledge dissemination. If only the original author and the LLM saw the code you have a bus factor of 1. If another person reviews the bus factor is closer to 2.
