What evidence that Elizabeth Holmes committed fraud did Shaan Puri cite on My First Million?

After the film, Shaan Puri asked ChatGPT for the strongest evidence against Elizabeth Holmes and read out the answer. It listed her trial admission that she added pharmaceutical company logos to reports, demonstrations for investors where samples were secretly run on conventional machines, claims of battlefield use that were untrue, and revenue projections far above actual income.

• According to that summary, only 12 of about 300 small-sample assays ever ran on Theranos's own machines.
• The same summary put projected revenue at $230 million against far lower actual income.
