Welcome to D Listers of History, a podcast about people you've never heard of who changed the world.
Every week, Fayge and Mazal explore the history that makes us who we are today. Our biography episodes dive deep into the lives of incredible people most have never heard of. These are people who did big things or represent big ideas that impact what is happening in our world today.
Our Sidebar episodes focus on a current event and explore a piece of history that brought us to this historical moment.
Always entertaining and sometimes with a bit of sass, join us in our explorations of the "D Listers" of history.
Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

What Sewing Machines Teach Us About AI
Dive into the surprisingly dramatic story of the invention of the sewing machine, if anyone can decide who did it first anyway. This story has it all: revolutions, bonfires, poorly managed paperwork, patent theft... and it all relates to Artificial Intelligence (AI), no, really.

Just a tip, if you look at this source on a computer, there is a panel on the left hand side of the screen that says “Text Mode (OCR).” Click on that, and it will show you the text of the book, and you can then translate the whole page to English (or whichever language you like). It’s not perfect, because the text is just pulled out by AI that recognizes the text in the image, but it’s good enough to read the book.
