Hi [First name], I wanted to let you know that the survey for our Code Review research is closing this week, but there’s still time to tell us your thoughts! All we’d ask you to do is take this survey and you could also win one of five $50 Amazon e-gift cards. Your contribution will help shape LeadDev’s Code Review Report! Expect to learn from your peers: How is AI adoption changing the volume, size, and cycle time of pull requests? Who’s actually accountable when an AI agent writes the code, another AI reviews it, and an automated system merges it? Are AI code-review tools genuinely improving outcomes, or just adding noise? Your feedback will be shared with the LeadDev and broader tech community, anonymously, of course. Thank you so much for making a difference! Michael Hill, Managing Editor, and the whole LeadDev Team We're committed to providing a harassment-free conference experience for everyone. Please read our Code of Conduct.
