I'm getting the vibe this person is a complete fraud. It seems likely that somebody is steering her on what to say, how to manage the project, and market herself as the visionary behind it.
Reading through the comments "However her aptitude was pretty poor... I've mentored many kids in my life.
At some point she was unable to even reason out how to convert a string to upper case.
She said... What does this have to do with programming.... I want to build apps.
After that she didn't talk to me much and I didn't bother either."
These aren't really the people we should be lauding or giving a free ticket to MIT. From what I'm reading, she's probably a future successful corporate bullshit artist, but this is not a role model for anyone or a future visionary.
I think it is good things like this get attention - young people should know they're not going to get ahead by stealing credit from others or falsifying their talents.
