Einstein made his share of errors. Here are three of the biggest

Even people who know little about Albert Einstein’s work know he was brilliant — so clever that his name is synonymous with genius. Of course, the mind that gave us the theory of general relativity, the 1915 masterwork that sealed Einstein’s scientific reputation, was human. And so Einstein made his share of mistakes.

Here’s a close look at three times the great physicist, born on Pi Day (March 14) 139 years ago today, got things wrong.

Pushing boundaries forward, usually involves being wrong most of the time.
Real scientist have no issues admitting they are wrong about something,
because they know the being wrong often is how you move forward.

He was also wrong(ish) when he refused to accept the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle with his famous quip, "God does not play dice"

Without looking it up, yet, I can think of two mistakes by Einstein;

(1) The Cosmological Constant (CC), symbolized by the Greek letter "lambda". Einstein himself said this was his biggest mistake. General Relativity (GR) had no solutions to support the existence of a static universe, but rather offered only dynamic, radically changing universes. Since at the time the universe appeared to be static Einstein introduced the CC as a new element of GR which made caused GR to predict a static universe. Several theorists questioned the soundness of this step, and when Hubble and othner astronomers produced evidence of cosmic expansion Einstein renounced the CC.

(2) Einstein never fully accepted Quantum Mechanics (QM) because he could not tolerate the fact that the core of scientific universal truth might contain an element of probability, as required by QM. Einstein famously asserted that "God does not play dice with the universe". 80 years after its discovery QM has withstood all challenges, and has made predictions especially about the subatomic realm which strongly attest to its accuracy.

I'll have to look at the link to see what (3) is.

Science is all about correcting errors until you get it right- nothing is set in stone until its proven.
