Everything on Process Automation

AI models are now capable of performing deep code reviews, identifying logic errors and security vulnerabilities that would take humans hours to find. This automation shifts the human role from line-by-line inspection to high-level architectural oversight.

Impact: Reduces the time spent on code review and maintenance, allowing engineers to focus on higher-value tasks such as system design and user experience.
