I can foresee a future of induced demand, where by making PRs "easier" to review, you will end up with way more PRs to review, leading PR backlogs as backed up with PRs as ever. Except now dev teams will have trust-me-bro LLM reviews convincing them that they don't actually need to do full code reviews on code they're putting into production. What could go wrong?

Very good point. So when we designed this we actually had that in mind. Devin Review is not supposed to replace your judgment and “give the answer”. It just organizes the PR in a way that makes it way easier for YOU to understand.

I was being partly facetious and I think this is probably the way things are going. I guess it's just hard to stomach that devs will end up relying on these tools more than their own intuition. But I suppose that ship has sailed already for a lot of people.
