The documentary Steve Jobs, man in the machine has a lot of his shitty behavior. His entire brand and wealth came from stealing other people’s ideas, and yet when prototype iphones would get lost, he’d ruthlessly pursue legal action against the people, even sending cops to their doors.

He couldn’t make anything or code, so his first job ( making games for atari ), he got woz to do for him, paying woz only a pittance of what he sold the games for.

He was unique among silicon valley entrepreneurs in that he didn’t give anything to charity, even to boost his image.

He was a complete asshole to his family and friends, letting his baby momma and baby ( who he refused to recognize ) wallow in poverty while being one of the richest people on the planet.

His only thing was that he wielded capital more effectively than his peers and used it recruit creative people, which he then appropriated for his own brand image and cult of personality. He’s a prototype for the silicon valley cult leader who knows how to manipulate the media, and advertise in such a way that people forget he’s just a capitalist trying to make a profit. People like Elizabeth holmes and countless other silicon valley grifters would try to emulate him.
