Vibe coding is everywhere, and it’s already drastically changing the tech industry, shaping everything from how software gets made to who gets hired. Back in July, WIRED's very own Lauren Goode went on a journey to become a vibe coder at one of San Francisco’s top startups. In this episode, she sits down with our director of consumer tech and culture, Mike Calore, to share her experience and break down whether vibe coding really spells the end of coding as we know it.
Join us live in San Francisco on September 9th. Get your tickets here.
