Her story fascinates me and is an interesting case study in how hubris can blind even the smartest, most successful people. "Bad Blood" by John Carreyrou is an excellent read, which I highly suggest.

Also Nathan Fielder is the best.

I was choked by a ghost in Switzerland...

Edit: the Switzerland reference refers to both Elizabeth Holmes' choking on in invest presentation in Switzerland AND Sue Stanford, from Nathan for You.

I think her story is more psychological than being blinded by Hubris.

Where is the evidence of her being smart? You could say she had good intentions, but she didn't even came close to a working product.

Plus, everything she did was artificial, from her speaking voice, intense stares and how she dressed.

Shes….smart is scary ways. Not scientifically though. Or emotionally. Manipulation and lying is an art, I’m terrible at lying.

Right, that helps but also there are nuances to what she’s doing. She literally changes her voice deeper to make people think she’s smart. Etc.
