What is code review?
Code review is the process of examining code changes before they are merged or released.
It is used to catch defects, security issues, and maintainability risks early.
How does it change in the AI era?
As AI-generated code volume grows, review remains a critical control point.
Teams still need human checks for correctness, security posture, and architectural fit.
Why does it matter?
Code review improves release quality while spreading team knowledge about design and standards.
When combined with automated tests, it becomes a practical quality gate for fast-moving teams.
