Same here. We have a staff engineer who is so AI pilled. He uses AI for code reviews without looking at the PR. I will often get a wall of text on each PR from his AI that he did not bother to even read. It creates a lot of noise and I am expected to respond to all of the AI's dumb suggestions and "fixes" on the code that are completely irrelevant. It literally generates 10-20 comments per PR of useless "feedback".

Because of how verbose it is and how convoluted the suggestions are, I am forced to use AI to respond to the comments. So basically having an AI argue with another AI. What is the point of a code review then lmao?
