A lot of my work early on in new projects is setting up local and CI validations and rules, practices, reviews, git usage, design patterns / code architecture, etc - skipping all of those will lead to maintenance problems in the long run, whether code is written by a developer (I'm not even going to prefix it with 'junior' because I also suck lol) or an AI. But that validating is carried by the whole company at least. Where I work now we've got unit tests, linters, automatic formatting via Biome or Prettier, visual regression tests, Sonar with all the options enabled, minimum of two code review approvals, locked down main branch, etc etc etc.

Some AI generated code does come through, but at that point it's already mostly alright. Code review is still required for things like unnecessary comments or detecting duplicate functionality (exact duplicate code is already pointed out by Sonar).
