Mark Zuckerberg reckons he's a Civilization 'grandmaster' who could beat 'anyone in the world,' and we should all brace ourselves for his Twitch career

Mark Zuckerberg, chief executive officer of Meta Platforms Inc., wears Orion augmented reality (AR) glasses during the Meta Connect event in Menlo Park, California, US, on Wednesday, Sept. 25, 2024. Meta Platforms Inc. debuted its first pair of augmented reality glasses, devices that show a combined view of the digital and physical worlds, a key step in Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg's goal of one day offering a hands-free alternative to the smartphone.

In what I can only assume is part of his ongoing but undeclared rebrand as an actual human being, Meta and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg says he will absolutely annihilate you at Civilization. Actually, he says he'll annihilate anybody at Civilization, declaring himself "close to grandmaster status" in the game in an act of hubris rivalled only by the protagonists of Greek myth.

"I'd be surprised if anyone in the world could beat me at that," Zuck told Pubity (via Dexerto), wearing his "Aut Zuck aut nihil" (All Zuck or all nothing) T-shirt that seems to be the only thing he's allowed to wear in 2024.
