God's Work Syndrome, or GWS, is the condition where someone is convinced that the work they are doing is of utmost importance to humankind, aka, God's work. Not applicable to situations where someone is actually doing societally important work, i.e., doctors, firefighters etc. But rather used when someone is deluded about the importance of their job in improving people's lives, and feels entitled, ex. entrepreneurs, academics.
"He thinks the VCs should just blindfold themselves and hand him all the funding he needs to run the company, because he's going to give free energy to the masses. That man's got God's Work Syndrome." "My boss just implied that our research project is more valuable than the Apollo program. This guys has some God's Work Syndrome."
