Ada Lovelace is often considered the world's first computer programmer, as she worked closely with Charles Babbage on his Analytical Engine and wrote what is now recognized as the first algorithm intended to be processed by a machine.
Ada Lovelace's work has been acknowledged as groundbreaking and visionary, and she serves as an inspiration to women in technology and other fields.
Her story empowers women by demonstrating that they can achieve anything they set their minds to, breaking barriers and making significant contributions in traditionally male-dominated fields.
Ada Lovelace's legacy continues to inspire and encourage women to pursue their passions and excel in their chosen fields, showing that gender should not limit one's potential for success.

Despite distancing itself from politics, the topic is dominating Threads’ trends
Meta’s newest app Threads, a would-be Twitter/X rival, may not want politics on its platform, but it’s coming to the app anyway — or so Threads’ search trends indicate. The app began testing its Twitter-like trends feature last month with a small group of U.S. users, but it’s now more broadly available to Threads’ user base across both desktop web and mobile, according to users’ reports. (Instagram says it’s still in testing, however). And with the expansion, it seems the topics that Threads users are talking about the most are, in fact, political in nature.

Microsoft warns Russian hackers still trying to break into its systems
Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab said on Friday that hackers linked to Russia's foreign intelligence were trying again to break into its systems, using data stolen from corporate emails in January to gain new access to the tech giant whose products are widely used across the U.S. national security establishment.
The disclosure alarmed some analysts who cited concerns about safety of systems and services at Microsoft, one of the world's largest software makers which provides digital services and infrastructure to the U.S. government.

Chinese researchers hope to create ‘real AI scientists’ through ‘informed machine learning
The scientists wrote in a recent paper that they had found ways to train machines with ‘prior knowledge’ such as the laws of physics or mathematical logic
Even cutting edge models such as OpenAI’s text-to-video model Sora are currently unable to ‘accurately model the physics of many basic interactions
Deep learning models have “revolutionised the field of scientific research” due to their ability to uncover relationships from large amounts of data, according to a paper published in the peer-reviewed Cell Press journal Nexus on Friday.
One recent example is Sora, a text-to-video model from the American company OpenAI, which the developers say can understand how “things exist in the real world”.

Apple made big App Store changes due to new EU rules. Are iPhones more vulnerable to hacking now?
Apple is opening small cracks in the iPhone's digital fortress as part of a regulatory clampdown in Europe that is striving to give consumers more choices - at the risk of creating new avenues for hackers to steal personal and financial information stored on the devices.
The overhaul that rolled out on Thursday last week in the European Union represents the biggest changes to the iPhone's App Store since Apple introduced the concept in 2008.
Among other things, people in Europe can download iPhone apps from stores not operated by Apple and are getting alternative ways to pay for in-app transactions.
