    If you mean right now, yes code reviews are still a thing.[*] More so than ever, really. If you mean some hypothetical future age, yes code reviews will still be a thing.

    [*] Among people who know what they’re doing.

      This is kind of why I asked. What I’m seeing (as a non-programmer) is management pushing AI and LLM use so hard that I could imagine someone high enough up mandating away code reviews.

      I’m glad you (and most responders) seem confident the the levy will hold…

        Big companies have a lot of slack and financial buffer and so on, but organizations can absolutely be broken by bad quality and technical debt. It will just happen to your mom and pop software house around the corner far faster than to microsoft or other FAANG companies.

        They don’t know enough about the process to do that. They just want us to “use ai when doing code”. Reviews, merge requests, etc. aren’t even in their vocabulary.

          Oh my - I like the sound of that structure. Around here managers don’t have to “know enough” to make decisions; they just have to think they do. And boy do they.

          We’re still in the process of un-lift-and-shifting their big-brain “lift and shift” cloud plan back on-prem.
