I want to focus on the "colleagues submit thousands of AI generated lines of code for review" comment.

Humanity developed Code and programming languages for people. They are supposed to provide sufficient expressiveness so that we people can understand what is happening, and 0 ambiguity, so that the machine can perform is instructions.

But computer code has been a way to communicate among us people on our intentions (what we intend the machine to do). Otherwise, we would still be writing in assembler.

But now, computers are generating code, A LOT of code. So much, that it's becoming more and more difficult to stay on top with our verbose languages.

We will need to develop a better way for the computers to a) produce the instructions to perform the tasks we tell them to , b) produce reports or some accessible way for us people to understand and share what the instructions are doing.
