  Interesting, we now have the AI tech that can help him with that. I suspect he just finances new projects and has no real need to be in the public eye. Public figures surrender a big chunk of their privacy and mental health in exchange for being in the public eye. It's probably not worth it to him. Techies tend to trend towards being introverts.

Talk about changing the world, he did it.
