Seriously, “just review 5k lines a day for a month” is the most out of touch manager suggestion I’ve seen in a hot minute. As though you only need to read each line one single time in a review before magically committing its exact purpose, content, and overall implications to memory. The absurdity of which is multiplied for AI generated code which, based on what I see from my coworkers, is clunkier and weirder and less focused even than regular human code, on average.

This is not a regular code review of new code. The original code still exists, and is sitting side by side, just in a different language.

You'd be just looking at both files, side by side, to make sure nothing was lost in translation or newly introduced.
