What is being recommended?

In a no-blame culture, all the work we produce is a shared responsibility. This means if a change causes an incident, it isn't the fault of the engineer that made the change. This cuts both ways though, if delivering software is a shared responsibility then this means reviewers aren't completely absolved.

What's the context?

I believe this change better reflects the reality of how teams work here today. With the rise of AI-assistants, we will need to instill a renewed focus on code review and I believe that even more than now, a shared responsibility model for teams will be essential.

This change serves as a trigger for checking that my sense of how this works is shared, ahead of rolling out guidelines for the use of AI assisted programming.

this sounds good to me, and from my experience I think is the approach that I've tended to see teams adopting in the department
