Episode notes
Contextual Code Review Traces Impact
- AI code reviewers inspect PR changes with full repository context to catch bugs and architectural mismatches.
- Greptile traces call graphs and ticket context to produce precise inline comments on pull requests.
AI Excels At Validation, Humans Define Taste
- Human code review is often poor at finding bugs while AI can scale diligence across large changes.
- AI validation can become fully autonomous while humans remain needed for expressing subjective product opinion.
Use Separate Agents For Review And Generation
- Build independent reviewing agents separate from generation agents to avoid conflicts of interest.
- Let the reviewer autonomously run tests, generate fixes, and loop humans in only when opinion matters.
