ONE thing that is on display in this movie; is the attitude of who an "inventor" is.
Holmes is repeatedly referred to in this documentary as an "inventor". This isn't a claim the documentary spends any time on, but the few mentions it gets are like fingernails on chalkboard to me.
SHE dreamed of an impossible device that couldn't actually exist; and left it to engineers and biochemists to create something that could be said to approximately resemble the impossible device.
The prototype devices Theranos made; are not a direct product of her skills.
This is a mistake we're repeating in the present with genAI. The prompter is not creating, the algorithm is.
Jobs did not create the first Apple computer, Wozniac did.
The patron is not the artist.
@trashheap People do that with Musk to. They act like he invented and made the Tesla himself or the rockets. Hell, even Zuck stole Facebook.
