And just like Edison, Elon swooped in and bought up all their IP and took all the credit for their inventions/work.
Edison did it with Nikolas ideas when he was working for him, and now Elon did it with something that was named to honor the man.
Tesla gets shafted yet again.
I can't help but wonder what he could have accomplished if someone, literally anyone had continued to fund him, and help him continue his efforts for the remainder of his natural life. Maybe we would be flying around in wirelessly powered personal vehicles. Who knows? But the ideas he had led to some of the most significant advances in technology for years. Pretty much our entire modern life is thanks to Tesla's inventions, either directly or indirectly.
Even something as simple as AC electricity delivery... What a genius. Easily on the top of my list of best inventors.
His personal life and some of his opinions there may have been a bit problematic, but it would be difficult to deny that he was a brilliant inventor.
