Maybe don't approve code you don't understand? If people just lets in code they don't understand into products and it passes PRs and tests, they might have written dumb code in the first place. I see essentially zero risk in using these tools. dysfunctional teams will write shitty code anyways, whether it's coming from ai doesn't matter.

100 lines of poorly written code (by AI or humans) added to a 1M line codebase is easy to spot and fix by the humans who have that whole system mapped out in their heads.
Having AI write a 90% accurate 1M line codebase all at once, (which seems to be the expectation here), is the "risk" you're overlooking. No human will be able to know where to start debugging that. At least not yet. But will yet come before incredibly dangerous amounts of AI written code is pushed into critical systems everywhere, by naively optimi$tic opportuni$t$?
