What would&#8217;ve as soon as taken &#8220;50 or 100&#8221; engineers to construct, he believes can now be completed by a staff of 10, &#8220;when they&#8217;re totally vibe coders.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When they&#8217;re truly actually, actually good at utilizing the innovative instruments for code gen right this moment, like Cursor or Windsurf, they are going to actually do the work of 10 or 100 engineers in the middle of a single day,&#8221; he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Vibe coding does have its drawbacks, Tan caveated in an episode of Y Combinator&#8217;s <a target=\"_blank\" class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=IACHfKmZMr8\" data-analytics-product-module=\"body_link\" rel=\" nofollow noopener\">Lightcone Podcast<\/a> earlier this month.
