This is why AI agent attributions in commits is silly (it’s really just a stealth ad for the tool)

Had someone at $DAYJOB just shrug and say Claude messed up when I pointed out a sql injection in the code in their PR.

It became explicit policy at the company after that moment that blaming the AI is not an excuse for shoddy work.

It kind of is if the company mandates LLM use.

It is sort of sad that now programmers are suddenly expected to be perfect reviewers of code they didn't write.

What? The reviewer (me) caught the injection in the code I didn't write.

Running /code-review and /security-review on your own code before submission is bare minimum, not perfection.

It's not, because you can still quit.
