On the contrary, a small piece of text that says “this code deserves more review because humans may not have seen it” is absolutely necessary. All this is doing is making it so I can hide that I didn’t touch the code.

    because there is no guarantee the code will be wrong per se. should junior developers need to disclose this fact, then? because according to your logic their code could be wrong!

All this is doing is making it so I can hide that I didn’t touch the code. Why are you assuming that everyone would honestly disclose AI use if it was a rule? The honest ones that would disclose it to say “this needs more eyes, guys” can still do just that. The dishonest ones that would hide AI use will do exactly that whether it’s a rule or not. The only difference here is there’s no punitive action to follow for non-disclosure because that would be a gigantic waste of time when, AI or not, all code needs to be reviewed anyway.

    So then the person who doesn’t put that in, doesn’t get reviewed. Are you dumb enough to think everyone well follow the rules?
