My concern here that LLMs do give worse-than results than something like Sonar - in many cases *static* code analysis was good enough to catch things that LLMs miss.

Ideally we would still use different tools, but GitHub seems to want to push everything into models.

Turned on the new #GitHub "Code Quality" feature that seems to be some extended CodeQL + AI.

It's actually worse than anything #SonarQube gave us. That actually gave really good reports on code smells, regressions and coverage failure. It was reliable.

It really does appear tech companies are replacing everything with expensive, resource intensive systems that give worse results and expect us to pay more @pluralistic #enshitificaton
