We all review code differently. Some developers carefully read side-by-side diffs in the browser. Others refuse to leave the terminal and review purely via CLI. And let's be honest—sometimes we just click "LGTM" without looking at the code at all. In this talk, I will demo these different code review styles, explore why they all still lead to a "review bottleneck," and show how AI can speed up the process no matter which workflow you prefer.

Code review has come a long way. We’ve evolved from manual inspections and email patches to modern pull requests and automated testing. Yet, one big problem remains: developers are still stuck waiting on human approvals. Join me for a walk through the history of code review to see how our processes have adapted over the last 30 years. We'll examine the limits of our current workflows and explore how the new era of AI-assisted reviews is finally solving the code review bottleneck.
