Executives happily automating their days with AI. New hires confronting bro culture. Women in tech have a lot to say—and they told it all to WIRED.

WIRED dedicating an entire issue to women in 2026 might seem regressive, or obvious, or even unnecessary. We disagree.

In defense of the girliest programming language.

Women hold some of the most consequential jobs in tech, but they’re still not cult figures. WIRED investigates why.
