fwiw this problem already exists with my more junior co-workers. and also my own code that I write when exhausted!

if you have trusted processes for review and aren't always rushing out changes without triple checking your work (plus a review from another set of eyes), then I think you catch a lot of the subtler bugs that are emitted from an LLM.

Yes, code review can catch these things. But code review for more complex issues works better when the submitter can walk the reviewers through the design and explain the details (sometimes the reviewers will catch a flaw in the submitter's reasoning before they spot the issue in the code: it can become clearer that the developer didn't adequately understand the spec or the problem to be solved). If an LLM produced it, a rigorous process will take longer, which reduces the value of using the LLM in the first place.
