Yes, the aufbau principle states that electrons fill orbitals starting with the lowest energy level and filling up to two electrons in each orbital before pairing electrons. This follows the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons with opposite spin.
If you are referring to the Aufbau Principle, than I believe it was the Danish physicist Niels Bohr who discovered it around 1920. However, instead of being named after a person, it came from the German phrase Aufbauprinzip which literally translates to "building-up principle."
The next electron would be placed in the next available lowest energy orbital according to the aufbau principle, Hund's rule, and the Pauli exclusion principle.
The elements that are exceptions to the aufbau principle other than chromium and copper include molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W), which have a 4s orbital that is higher in energy than the 3d orbital, and silver (Ag) and gold (Au), which have a 5s orbital that is higher in energy than the 4d orbital. These exceptions are due to the electron-electron repulsion between electrons occupying the 4s and 3d orbitals, and the 5s and 4d orbitals, respectively.
An example of a situation where an orbital diagram violates the aufbau principle is in the case of chromium (Cr) and copper (Cu). For chromium, one electron is placed in the 4s orbital instead of the 3d orbital to achieve a more stable half-filled or fully filled d subshell. Similarly, for copper, one electron is placed in the 4s orbital before filling the 3d orbital to achieve a more stable fully filled d subshell.
4f orbital
The Aufbau principle states that electrons fill orbitals in order of increasing energy levels. Orbital diagrams visually represent the arrangement of electrons in an atom's orbitals. By following the Aufbau principle and using orbital diagrams, we can understand how electrons are distributed in an atom's electronic configuration.

Bohr &Stoner suggested aufbau principle
The orbital diagram for the element carbon shows two electrons in the 1s orbital, two electrons in the 2s orbital, and two electrons in the 2p orbital. This arrangement follows the Aufbau principle and Hund's rule.

Chromium is the exception to the aufbau principle. Instead of filling its 4s orbital before the 3d orbitals, one electron goes into the 3d orbital first. This anomaly is due to the more stable half-filled or fully-filled d subshell configuration in the 3d orbitals for chromium ions.
The Aufbau principle states that electrons must be added to elements and ions in a VERY specific order with the lowest energy level being filled first and the highest last. This is where the Aufbau triangle comes in. It shows the order in which the energy levels must be filled.
The tendency of electrons is to occupy orbitals of lowest energy first, in accordance with the aufbau principle. This principle states that electrons fill orbitals from lowest to highest energy levels in order to achieve the most stable electron configuration.
