AI Is Writing More Code Than Humans Can Review
What happens when the AI coder moves faster than the review process can handle?
Nnenna Ndukwe has spent 8+ years as a software engineer and now works at the intersection of AI, developer relations, and enterprise engineering strategy. As AI developer relations lead at Qodo, she spends her time helping teams separate useful AI adoption from expensive chaos.
In this episode of [Dev]olution, Nnenna joins Nicky Pike to talk about the part of AI coding most teams skip: review, verification, governance, and the outer loop where AI-generated code either gets controlled or breaks production.
They dig into why AI does not fix broken engineering systems, how rework rate exposes the truth behind AI productivity, and why better code review needs more than another stream of AI comments. What it needs, instead, are deterministic gates, developer trust, and a clear view of where AI belongs in the software delivery process.
If your team is shipping faster but fixing more, this episode will make you rethink what “AI productivity” actually means.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why rework rate may expose AI productivity better than velocity- How deterministic gates keep AI review from becoming noise
- Where engineering leaders should introduce AI first
