I don't think "AI" is going to add anything (positive) to such a use case. And if you remove "AI" as a requirement, you'll probably get more promising candidates than if you restrict yourself to "AI" (whatever that means) solutions.
I don't care if the solution is AI based or not, indeed.
I guess I thought it like that because AI is quite fit for the task of understanding what might be the purpose of code in a few seconds/minutes without you having to review it. I don't know how some non-AI tool could be better for such task.
Edit: so many people against the idea. Have you guys used GitHub Copilot? It understands the context of your repo to help you write the next thing... Right? Well, what if you apply the same idea to simply review for malicious/unexpected behaviour on third party repos? Doesn't seem too weird for me.
Sure, and parrots are amazing at spotting fallacies like cherry picking...
