If you're the reviewer you share responsibility if there's an issue with the PR. Hopefully your teams culture is such that issues like that are treated as a learning experience, rather than a reason to pile on the individuals involved.
If you have someone on your team that creates 6k PRs with AI then you are in a loose-loose situation anyways. If you do a thorough review you will be done just in time for the next one and you will get in trouble for not getting your own shit done. So gambling on the PR is probably your best shot at survival.
Just don't approve it? If they complain, they don't have a leg to stand on.
"why don't you have an AI checking that review?" That's the reply I have heard from a big tech company thread. They will force you to be the one who take the fall when AI fail but will also shit on you for not using AI. That's the whole point of the system.
