AI code review is shifting from line edits to constraints, tests, and architecture rules

The key skill, the author says, is learning which parts of AI-generated code deserve review and which parts do not.
His workflow is:
- start with sensitive operations,
- write tests to validate correctness,
- review selectively for style and structure,
- and keep evolving internal docs so the model follows your architecture and conventions.
The quoted post argues that code reviews may be fading as AI-written code becomes good enough. The reply does not fully agree, but reframes the problem: the human’s job is shifting from line-by-line review to building the right constraints, tests, and architecture rules around the agent.
