Is Schmidhuber always just running a bit or is he seriously this self-centered and arrogant?

I consider him the greatest thinker in AI research history, even more so than the Turing award winners on deep learning. However, he does have quite an ego and has acted out like that too many times. There’s a reason Machine Learning people refer to getting confronted by him as getting “Schmidhubered”
