About this listen

 Step inside Victorian London with Leo, the time-traveling graduate student, for a vibrant, revelatory conversation with Ada Lovelace. Together they weave through her extraordinary life—her wild inventions as a precocious girl, the constraints and passions of society, a groundbreaking partnership with Charles Babbage, the writing of the world’s first program, mathematical scandal and victory, and how her legacy became the thread between poetry, machines, and the possibility of artificial intelligence. (Extended 35-minute edition.)
