I wonder if this would work even better by picking a random person of the three and pinning it on them. The bystander effect disappears completely and now there is accountability.
Agreed. On a previous team I was on (no CODEOWNERS there either), we had a Python script in the build process that would look at the git history for the changed files and assign the two most likely people to the pull request automatically. I liked that a lot.
I forced myself to evaluate my own posture whenever I get up. This was difficult at first but comes naturally now. No special tools, just making a strong mental note each time I forget. It's not been working perfectly but pretty well.
I do agree with your post. It looks like HR is already impacted a lot by many people applying to many jobs through AI. Imagine filtering through 1000s of AI job applications to find the human who tries their best to sound professional.
