Musk has often voiced his grave, often sensational fears about the advent of super-intelligent artificial intelligence, or AI.

Bezos is mounted, brandishing a spear and clutching an Amazon package, in the style of an equestrian statue. His horse appears to be trampling on yet more packages, in a reminder that Bezos' empire is built on commerce. You can also see a prostrate human being trampled by the horse.

It's not immediately clear what the man being trampled is meant to signify. He may be an allegorical representation of an Amazon worker, as Bezos has repeatedly come under fire for making his fortune off their low-paid labour and poor working conditions, most notably from presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders.

It looks like Errazuriz opted for the older, "swole" Bezos rather than the younger, nerdier-looking Jeff Bezos.

Bezos heralded the beginning of 2019 by riding into a cowboy apparel store on a horse.

Mark Zuckerberg's bust is garlanded with poppy seeds, which are the main ingredient in opium and heroin. This seems to be a reference to the frequent criticism that social media is addictive.

Zuckerberg even named one of his daughters, August, after the emperor.

That's presumably a reference to the fact that you can, theoretically, find almost any information on Google.

Jobs' pose is highly reminiscent of Auguste Rodin's famous sculpture, "The Thinker", which shows a man similarly cross-legged and thoughtful — although without a phone in hand. Errazuriz told Wired in December that Jobs is"evangelizing everyone."

Snowden is laid out on a slab, reminiscent of a memorial.

Snowden famously leaked a huge cache of confidential the US National Security Agency (NSA), revealing the extent to which America and its allies tap internet and phone communications. He fled to Russia and, as far as anyone knows, still lives there after being indicted by the US Department of Justice in 2013.

Trump and Putin resemble Roman senators flanking Xi, who occupies centerstage sat on a throne and clad in robes like that of a bishop.
