As someone who has been using ChatGPT to code recently - code reviews are one of the worst ways to use ChatGPT. Sure, it'll catch some stuff every now and then, but realize that it's still just a language model and things like design or code reviews require real understanding.

Using ChatGPT to code review is very much like posting a picture of your code on StackOverflow or Reddit.

The bot is not meant to completely replace code review but to improve the code to be more production ready and catch any errors that might not be caught by the developers. In my experience more than 40% of code review comments relate to the specific changes and do not need a global context from the project.
