This feels like a comment from 2 years ago; by now the most modern models write much better code than humans can in much shorter time.

But if you're not used to code reviewing, it can certainly help to still write yourself.

> models write much better code than humans can

What? I think this is either over exaggerating model capabilities or you haven't seen much good code from humans?

My experience is that my colleagues which have bought into model-first development have regressed in quality of the PRs they send out. LLMs are not better coders, in my experience. They lack holistic understanding and often need course correction for that reason. At least in medium to highly complicated systems.
