If he built the first prototype, I'd call him a creator of it. It had absolutely nothing to do with who was the first person inside of Microsoft to use LLMs in an IDE completion experience.

I call everyone who builds the first thing the creator(s). This isn't uncommon or weird in my mind at all.

He may be totally fully of himself, but I don't see any realistic argument that he isn't one of the creators.

He's not calling himself "one of the creators" though. He's calling himself the creator, which shits all over the hard work of OpenAI, "Albert" and more.
