This is the guy with the most regrets. He put lead into gasoline and is responsible for CfC coolants that depleted the ozone layer. He also developed a device to grant him a greater degree of mobility when bedridden which unintentionally killed him.
While I agree he had a massive negative impact on the world, I don’t read any remorse in that biography, instead even after he personally got sick from lead poisoning and recovered, he still pushed for leaded gas. He just sucks
It was dynamite right. Honestly I don’t see him as having as much regrets. As sucky as the war usages were it still helped in building and mining and such.
I think that prize still goes to Alfred Nobel

He literally regretted his invention so badly he founded the Nobel prize
