Personality: Ada Lovelace
Hello guys, I'm Hannah
I'm graduated as a product designer
and today I live in Brasília (capital of Brazil).
I guess as we presente our vídeos you will get to know us better.
Today I'm gonna talk about Ada Lovelace (behold! That style!)
she was the daughter of Lord Byron, that poet with doubtful habits that we learn on literature; a romancist.
Her mother didn't want her to be like her father
so to balance this creative gene, she studied mathmatics a lot
ant the more she tended to creativity, the more mathmatics she had to sutdy.
as an outcome, there was a blend of creativity, romancism and mathematics
and she called herself a scientific poet.
She has never been a prestigious mathematician
but she liked to solve problems in a visual way
and maybe this is why she inspired me so much when I met her.
I mean... not met. Read about.
And she became famous when she wrote a translation note of a paper that presented an Analytical Machine
that was being conceived by Charles Babbage.
In these translator's notes, that are actually more that twice the size of the paper (it says that...)
1) the machine was programmable and reprogrammable
This was done through perforated cardboards, and this idea came actually from an analogy with knitting machines
that used this technology to program the webs.
2) The machine wasn't limited to processing numbers.
but anything that could be converted to symbols.
such as images, music, words
and it was exactly at this point that she got really attached to the machine
and that she... flipped out! Get it?
3) She wrote in details the program to make a certain calculation the machine was able to solve:
the Bernoulli process.
And she explained how the machine would process the program and give the right sequence as a result.
It was due to this topic that she got famous
because when she published these notes,
she was the first person to ever publish what we nowadays call a computer program or algorithm.
4) She makes a reflection whether machines would ever be able to think by themselves someday.
Today it's a widely discussed topic: if artificial intelligence and robots will be able to replace human, etc.
Well, think about it too!
I chose to talk about her because
we are nowadays at YouTube sharing completely intangible things
with connected people, and that can process the information they receive the way they want to.
So I guess it's all related, and Ada envisioned it so much time ago,
100 years before the first computer was created, 
and even after that, so much has changed.
So that's it, see you next time. Bye!
