Even if you are competent I cannot review your 5,000 lines of code you produce per day vs the 100 you were producing before the LLM apocalypse.

5,000 is the output velocity of someone not fully immersed in agentic coding. I've seen repos do ~100k to ~250k loc changes per week.

That's okay. Reviewing the code will become the agents' job as well.

A couple more step functions in model capability of the type we've seen in the past year, and there will pretty much be no reason for humans to be involved in the development process at all. All humans would need to do is communicate clearly what needs to be made and flag problems as they come up.
