I hate AI and wish it would disappear but you’re right. The automatic PR reviewing LLM at my job genuinely catches a lot of issues that would fly under the radar normally. Obviously a human review is still needed but those downvoting clearly do not work in tech because it’s basically just a fancy SonarQube* CircleCI (well, apparently they’re AI now but before they did that). If it’s wrong, resolve the issue with one click; if it’s right, then its beneficial?
The blanket AI hate is stupid because it drowns out the valid criticisms like energy use, knowledge loss, unmaintainability, etc
edit: I said CircleCI but was thinking of SonarQube
I don’t entirely get the point you’re making but if I’m understanding it correctly my response would be that I’m not pro AI. The issue is that the AI vs not AI conversation always lacks any nuances which means those on the fence just disregard anything being said as just two evangelical bases yelling at each other
We can appreciate the positive aspects of things in tech even if the technology as a whole is a massive problem.
Edit: my point being: can you tell me why PR reviews generated by an LLM are bad? If the discussion was actually diving into the details then I’d be interested but blanket statements are just stupid

See, I don’t agree with this, and that’s why I see it as “stupid” to have a discussion about the nuance of LLM use.
“Damn, the mushroom cloud coming off of that bomb is hella dope tho”, “woah, look at the speed that projectile gets fired at! I didnt even see it hit me”, “actually, those drones can carry water to put out forest fires as well as explosive devices”. etc.

Props for objectively evaluating things regardless of your feelings for them
