Maybe what is needed is selective gating - some PRs are the type you REALLY have to make sure are reviewed; others can go through a barrage of AI reviews (security, code-quality etc) and the author can merge.
Either human or AI (or both?) needs to be tagging PRs. Perhaps a traffic light system is appropriate? Red - needs close human review; green - AI review only; yellow - unclear / somewhere in the middle.
Using PRs to merge features gives auditability and traceability to which human merged which thing.
As always, it is situational. AI is exposing new shades of grey.
