Surprised that’s your take considering Diamond is one of the code review bots that are ahead of the pack. Curious why you think that’s the case? Is it a technical limitation? Or something about human code review that is just fundamentally hard to copy?

AI will certainly make human code review easier — the goal being to keep up with the velocity of changes to existing large systems.

"Code review" as defined as a human in the loop getting the final say on whether a change will be made to the system will be the absolute last thing to go. That process may look very different as both the inputs massively increase in scale and the methods get disrupted by AI.
