À propos de cet audio

This week, we’re answering a brilliant request from one of our followers: Tell us about someone important that most people don’t know. So we went digging—and uncovered the extraordinary legacy of Ada Lovelace, a 19th-century visionary whose insights laid the foundation for both modern computing and the philosophical debates surrounding artificial intelligence.

Often overshadowed in her time, Ada was the first to recognize that machines could do far more than crunch numbers. Her groundbreaking "Notes" on Charles Babbage’s Analytical Engine included the world’s first published algorithm—earning her the title of the first computer programmer. But she didn’t stop there.

💡 In this episode, we explore:

  • How Ada’s algorithm for calculating Bernoulli numbers changed everything
  • Her prophetic vision of machines manipulating symbols and composing music
  • The famous “Lady Lovelace’s Objection”—her argument that machines can’t truly create
  • Why her ideas still shape today’s debates about AI, creativity, and machine autonomy
  • How her work was ignored for nearly a century before being rediscovered and celebrated

Whether you're a tech enthusiast, a history buff, or just curious about the roots of artificial intelligence, this episode will leave you inspired by a woman who saw the future long before the rest of us caught up.
