After writing more than 540,000 lines of code, noted investor and former Y Combinator partner Garry Tan has declared the end of the old game in AI programming. Tan, co-founder of Initialized Capital, has been a prominent voice in technology investment and startup mentorship, with deep insights into artificial intelligence and software development tools.

Through hands-on practice, Tan believes that the new generation of AI programming tools—exemplified by large language models—is fully replacing traditional approaches based on rule-based systems or earlier machine learning models. The statement, published via MarsBit, highlights a rapid paradigm shift in AI-assisted development.
