“It could be programmed to follow instructions, it could not just calculate but also create, as it weaves algebraic patterns just as the Jacquard loom weaves flowers and leaves.”
The writings and research of Ada Lovelace introduced many computing concepts that would pioneer the technology and field of computing in which she is renowned as the world’s first computer programmer.
With the rise of Silicon Valley dominated by a patriarchal society, Lovelace has become a role model for women in tech. In 1843, Lovelace conceptualized the modern computer through many of her writings and working with her mentor Charles Babbage in developing the first machine that calculates like a computer.
Lovelace serves as a significant figure for women in STEM in a field that often have patriarchal pressures.
