In case you don't know, 我 means me.

No one really "invented" it, as the whole language of Chinese, as so many other languages (like Latin, Greek, etc.), were developed by ancient Chinese people. All the words in the Chinese language, besides perhaps some contemporary "mishaps", are not really credited to anyone, but it was probably Chinese scholars that mostly put the language together.

The Chinese character 我 (wǒ) was likely invented by ancient Chinese scribes during the Shang dynasty (1600-1046 BC) for the purpose of written communication. It has evolved over thousands of years and is now used as a first person pronoun in modern Mandarin.
