Let’s be honest—Einstein didn't actually do much for the world, and neither did Tesla, really. All those "genius" breakthroughs just end up being weaponized into more efficient ways to wage war or, frankly, just make the average person even more clueless.
I don't think we're talking about "making others stupid." It's more about how those who have achieved high spiritual awareness contribute to the evolution of human consciousness through their work.
In my view, it isn't that someone was hand-picked and "granted wisdom." Instead, it's about the accumulated potential an individual carries from their past and distant past. That's how people differ—not as fundamental beings, but in terms of their varying stages of developmental attributes.

Not every contribution is inherently good or bad; some drive progress, while others can feel regressive. But saying Tesla didn't advance humanity is just wrong. His tech is lightyears ahead, and frankly, modern scientists can't even realize his ideas because they lack the capacity—or more likely, they just don't care. They're too busy chasing "pop science," indulging in theoretical fantasies, and burning through massive grants to fund sci-fi projects just to exploit everything in sight. Take one of his experiments where he managed to achieve an electromagnetic wave speed of about 261 miles/s—that's more than twice the speed of light. There are documents proving it, but who cares? Not the people obsessed with smashing hypothetical particles that nobody has ever seen and probably never will, all while wasting billions of dollars in the process.
Then you have the other side of technology: stuff that does nothing for conscious evolution and just exists to increase comfort or kill time. A lot of it isn't even designed for regular people; it's built for the ultra-wealthy. Look at medicine—it often ignores the actual causes and mechanisms of disease, focusing instead on a mountain of gadgets and expanding bureaucracy, which leads to more staff but also more chronic illnesses among the public. Science has lost its way because it has to satisfy its financiers, turning a profit for the state or whoever is pulling the strings.
