>Probably checking in about 10 to 15k lines of code per month on average.

God, these claims are so ridiculous. You guys are probably doing it wrong if you write that much code.

It's so easy to measure too. 15k is 750 lines per working day.

There's no way any developer can meaningfully test, read and review 750 lines worth of changes per day.

And with AI code you've got to really go through it with a fine tooth comb, you can't scan the code. There's loads of subtle, but bad, bugs and assumptions it makes without telling you. I really want to emphasise the assumptions bit. A good example I saw recently was it assuming the sort order of a DB call should be something totally wrong, but easy to miss unless you read every line meticulously.

So either the OP is lying about how many lines their AI is pumping out, or they're checking complete AI slop untested and unreviewed into the codebase.
