Code Review
When a human writes code, the code is an artifact of their reasoning process. You can review the code and infer the thinking behind it. When AI generates code, you lose that direct connection. The code might be perfectly functional but reflect no coherent design intent – or worse, reflect a design intent that’s subtly different from what the developer actually wanted.
