Surely in any responsible development environment those hundreds of lines of code still have to be reviewed.

Or don't people do code review any more? I suppose one could outsource the code review to an AI, preferably not the one that wrote it though. But if you do that surely you will end up building systems that no one understands at all.

Agree. Any reasonable team should have code reviews in place, but an irresponsible coder would push the responsibility of code quality and correctness to code reviewers. They were doing it earlier too, but the scale and scope was much smaller.
