In this episode of The Confident Commit, Rob Zuber sits down with Greg Foster, Co-Founder and CTO of Graphite, for a timely conversation about what it really means to ship software fast in the age of AI. Greg challenges the "996" grind culture with a provocative billboard campaign, arguing that speed comes from smart tooling and agency rather than endless hours, and shares how AI code generation is fundamentally reshaping the code review bottleneck while creating new trust and context challenges for engineering teams.The conversation explores the paradox of our current moment—where developers can generate more code than ever, yet senior engineers wake up to 20 AI-generated PRs that still require careful human review. Greg discusses why companies like Google’s techniques for handling high volumes of code changes are suddenly relevant again, the emerging role of AI code review as a "super linter," and why he believes the best engineering cultures prioritize being "urgent, expert, and kind." Whether you're an engineering leader navigating the AI transformation or a developer trying to understand how code review needs to evolve, this episode delivers practical insights on maintaining quality and velocity as AI reshapes software delivery.Have someone you'd like to hear on the show?
