AI is no longer just helping with autocomplete. In mobile development, it is starting to write code, verify flows, review pull requests, and speed up work across entire teams.

In this episode of React Universe On Air, Zack Ebenfeld joins Michał Pierzchała for a grounded conversation about what AI actually changes inside a real React Native workflow. They talk about verification, testing, QA, code review, and the difference between code that looks right and code you can genuinely trust.

A big theme in this episode is that mobile still needs a proper feedback loop. On the web, agents can often validate their work in a browser. On mobile, it is messier. You need builds, devices, simulators, logs, screenshots, and a reliable way to confirm that something works on both iOS and Android. That extra friction changes how useful AI can really be.

Zack also talks openly about trust. AI can move fast, but speed alone is not enough. If one weak assumption slips through, it can become a production problem later. That is why more of the job now sits in review, judgment, and validation rather than in typing alone.

The conversation also widens beyond engineering. Product owners, QA engineers, and reviewers are all starting to use AI in different parts of the workflow. The process may still look familiar from the outside, but the texture of the work is changing quickly.

This episode is a practical look at how React Native teams are adapting to AI-native development, and where human judgment still matters most.
