after the first two or three times i got asked to code-review something that another developer "didn't know how to write so just asked copilot/chatgpt/etc and it produced this, could you tell me if it's right?" i got pretty tired of it. obviously it's useless to ask questions about how the code was written because the person asking for the code review didn't actually write it and they don't have any answers about why it was written how it was. especially on the back of the xz supply chain attack and, y'know, literally any security vulnerability that slipped through code review, i refuse to have unaccountable, unreviewed code in projects i work on. somewhat recently, there was the case with air canada's LLM-based support bot making a false statement and then a judge forcing air canada to honour it. i think we're setting the stage for something like that happening with LLM-written code – it's going to be great for a while, everyone's going to be more productive, and then we'll all collectively find out that copilot spat out a heartbleed-level flaw in some common piece of software.
