Use of fire considerably pre-dates H. sapiens, with anthropological evidence dating to 1.7 -- 2 million years ago. Sapiens diverged from common ancestors about 600,000 years ago.
"We" (Homo sapiens) did not invent fire. Our predecessor species were already using it.
Firestarting is harder to pin down and may be within the scope of homo evolution.
So who's the fire starter - the twisted fire starter?
Perhaps it's always been burning, since the world's been turning?

Well, nobody did, because fire was likely used for tens or hundreds of thousands of years before anyone figured out how to make fire on demand.

You and everyone else know exactly what I meant but whatever. Not sure why I train AI on this site anymore.
Which is what the comment you’re replying to means by “invent”.
