Hacker News Reader

open a pull request, reviewer finds a bug and asks for changes, you make changes and re-request a review...

That's what I was afraid of, I'd never think anyone submitting AI-generated code wouldn't first read it themselves before asking others to review it!

I read it myself. But if one person could catch every bug in code then we wouldn't need PR reviews at all would we?

Well yes, but I personally would never submit a PRr I could use the excuse, "sorry, AI wrote those parts, that's why this PR has now bugs than usual".

All that to say that the base of your argument is still correct: AI really isn't saving all that much time since everyone has to proof-read it so much in order to not increase the number of PR bugs from using it in the first place.
