We've had a very recent uptick in engineers submitting PRs of hundreds of lines across multiple files, for Jira tickets that only asked for a one-line change. The engineers involved have been using AI assistants for nearly two years now, but there seems to have been a change in the last month or so in how aggressive the new models are at changing code.

This is exacty what I'm seeing. I've been using it in a DevOps capacity to act on runbooks. The same wrote task 3 months ago now consume 4-5x more tokens. this correlated closely with when anthropic released auto mode.

Use ponytail to keep 50 line changes to 1 line, and use rtk to save tokens.

Also use an assistant to checkout someone else's diff and review it in chunks
