Imagine sudoku with hundreds of subtle, sometimes mutually exclusive rules, and no single valid solution.

This is not about LLMs, by the way. It’s about reviewing any code, including by a fellow human. It’s just that many people mistakenly feel like with LLMs they can lower their guard and accept even if they have not gone through the steps of themselves coming up with their solution and comparing it to the one suggested by the LLM.

The reason is that many correctly see proper review as duplicate work, and while it is justified with another human (because it is (A) instructive and (B) reducing bus factor) with LLMs most people simply can’t be bothered. If you personally can, you are a minority.
