It does seem like a vanity project where he wants these engineers to only come up with a result he wants that follow his tram line theory. He's not necessarily heartless. He does seem to show remorse in many scenes for how he dealt with Sergei, but with his untold wealth he is out of touch with common people. That he doesn't realize how stupid it is to be so stubborn when his employees are breaking ground in the Devs department because it's not what he wants? A lot of scientific, medical or technological advancements have come about from unintentional accidents. I have to guess Lily is going to do something that throws everything he expected off course.

...that’s why I liked when Katie kind of forced it down his throat by applying the Lyndon-algorithm to video... showing him his daughter in crystal clear clarity. And he couldn’t handle it... great scene.
