Ask HN: How are you handling QA being bottlenecked with more AI-generated PRs?

At my company engineers are producing a high quantity of PRs with the help of AI agents. QA was already the bottleneck since the software involves camera flows across multiple devices, now this is more so the case.

    Hold the submitter to a higher standard by introducing penalties for errors, and/or incentives for clean PRs. In my opinion a PR should be flawless once submitted, as the dev should have tested thoroughly. QA should only catch errors in a small percentage of cases

    By slowing down engineers with ai agents adding multiple code reviews on top. Also encouraging engineers to engage in manual testing themselves to better understand the product.

    Making PRs faster doesn’t help much if QA is still slow.....it just moves the problem to QA.
