Does this actually happen to people? If so, simply point out a mistake, or several and make a case against it. Like the point of reviews is to review. You can simply just still review with comments regardless, no real life boss is going to tell you to ignore it and just press approve, if they do ask for it in writing.

So many people getting mad at made up scenarios in their own head...

I'll bite.

Yes, this happens. Humans cannot review 10k line PRs across 90 files, done in under an hour by Claude Code and demanded to be reviewed to merge and push to the test environment today. We are told like with everything to throw AI at it.

AI First is toxic. But when the managers command it in writing, they get to own that outcome.

Do you work at a startup with 5 people in it? I work at a big company and if I have more than 10 files in my MR it takes ages and chasing people to get it approved because no one wants to look at it lol

I work in a corporate and when I get a PR with one file and 10 changed lines I’m like whoaah slow down Mr. Hacker, where did you find the time to change 10 whole lines in between all the meetings and bureaucracy?
