AI comments in code reviews

Fremantle2026 August 20 (Thursday), 1:51PM· AI · programming · It's becoming more and more common for people to leave AI-generated comments during code reviews. This is to be expected I guess, as more and more people are using AI to write the code, it makes sense that they also use it for the discussion part. It's sometimes incredibly obvious when they do, and sometimes less so. I'm also starting to wonder if people are intentionally using AI-style language though, even when they write things themselves! Like always re-phrasing what they're replying to, being overly grateful, and using the name of the person they're replying to. I wish people would just go back to being themselves. ← Previous My main RSS news feed: https://samwilson.id.au/news.rss(or Wikimedia.rss, Fremantle.rss, OpenStreetMap.rss, etc. for topic feeds).
