Only the guy not leading says stuff like this. You can be sure he’d be up there convincing Congress that moats need to be built for his competitors and building opaque systems if fortune favored differently.

From a cynical atheist point of view he's not wrong:

- god is an imaginary construct used to rationalize data points

- god is often used by humans to make decisions, whether backed or not by data

- god is overhyped

substitute "god" with "AI"

Except that if you go beyond the title and read the actual quote, it's not what he said.

He also finds himself impressive. I believe his actual quote was “they’re trying to create me”.
