Yes, and people who care and is knowledgeable do this already. I do this, for one.

But there’s no way one is giving as thorough a review as if one had written code to solve the problem themselves. Writing is understanding. You’re trading thoroughness and integrity for chance.

Writing code should never have been a bottle neck. And since it wasn’t, any massive gains are due to being ok with trusting the AI.
