    "text": "Every one of those 769 PRs had an AI reviewer as the first reviewer, with an average of 10.8 review-fix loop iterations per PR (max 56). 1 in 5 merged within 10 minutes, roughly half within 30 minutes. What humans do now is look at review outcomes and tune the review prompt and the guidelines themselves -- this is human-on-the-loop, not human-in-the-loop. Humans operate on the policy layer, not the execution layer.",
