Code review used to have a very human scaling problem.
The pull request was ready. The tests were green. Then it sat there waiting for someone with enough context, enough patience, and maybe enough coffee to read it properly.
AI code review changes that queue. GitHub Copilot can review pull requests automatically, and since June 1, those reviews consume GitHub AI Credits. For private repositories, they can also consume GitHub Actions minutes while Copilot prepares the environment and analyzes the code.
This is not surprising. Models cost money. Runners cost money.
But it does make the product category much clearer.
