Didn't it give us the auto-tune effect?

No. It was already widely used, discreetly. She was the first to popularize using it cranked up to 11 as an intentional style choice. It's more apt to say she gave us T-Pain.

And wasn't it the producer who did the cranking uppa? She just gave the thumbs up. She didn't even write a single note on that track.

I'd argue it's exactly that exaggerated sound she's referring to. So by her giving us T-Pain she also gave us everything post T-Pain that also sounds like that.
