Yeah.

I mean, I would love to get to a point where, you know, you're able to triage code and you say like, ah, 70% of the code doesn't have to be reviewed by a human.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

It's enough to have it reviewed by the AI.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

Right.

And if it passes the verification suite, then you're good to go.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

And then, you know, then it's just a matter of like, you have an AI triage the code as it comes through the pipeline.

And it's like, okay, here's the 30% that actually needs human eyes on it.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

And not all humans are created or focused on the same areas.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

So it's like it's not just it needs human eyes on it.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

It's like, oh, it needs, you know, this person's eyes on it because they know this area of the code base, which is right.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

Code owners kind of thing.

But even that, I don't know that we'll get there because the problem is you have to you have to build up trust in the tools over time.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

really it depends on your risk profile right like what is it you're creating and the lower like

Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

the things that aren't as critical, you're much more likely to be like, ah, we'll just, we'll just wave it through.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

And that's fine.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

And that's what you're seeing.

I think out there in the world is like, you know, people are just creating fun things for themselves.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

Yeah.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
Building the machine that builds the machine (Interview)

I always like,

I have a mixed feeling about code review because sometimes I feel like
