We're using Github Copilot to review some of our PRs (the functionality that's built-in into Github directly). Man, I hope that people are using better agents for code review. Because if Github Copilot is in any way comparable to what the "machines will review all code soon" people are using, then I'm really worried. It's nowhere close to "good". It can find some obvious things, but it misses too much and has too many wrong findings.
I have similar experience with coderabbit we use at work. On the other hand codex with astra I use locally is way better. Still AI review is very different from human review. AI is better in paying attention and in finding bugs but it is incapable to detect code smells, wrong architectural decisions or domain errors.
Although AI is still way better in code reviews than in writing code. It make sense to use it as another automatic check in pipeline and it looks it will eventually be better.
