"Looks like I overlooked something in this 6k PR full of im meaningless dribble. Why don't you ask the person who comitted the code how he overlooked this bug. Its his respinsibility"
Just throw the the slop creator under the bus.
Throw them under the bus by rejecting their PR. Integrity is your responsibility, the gesture is theirs. They'll get shit for not getting their stuff done.
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.
If it can't be sensibly be reviewed, reject it for that reason. Have them, or their agent, break it down into smaller, self contained, PRs.
Just don't approve it? If they complain, they don't have a leg to stand on.
