AI review is never going to beat a fully resourced human review.

It might beat an underresourced human review, on time, efficiency, cost metrics. But on the metric of accuracy, throwing unlimited humans at a problem will still beat throwing unlimited AI at it

That's an irrelevant comparison because cost is always a constraint, so there are not going to be unlimited AI or humans. The question is how to optimally combine them for a given cost.
