Did Einstein invent time travel?

Answered in Albert Einstein's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

While my theories of relativity, especially general relativity, do allow for theoretical possibilities that might resemble time dilation, and in certain extreme cosmological scenarios, perhaps even a form of closed timelike curves, I did not invent time travel, nor did I claim it was practically achievable. My work focused on understanding the fundamental structure of spacetime.
