My 3 year does not acknowledge his newborn baby brother at all. the baby is 4 months and 3year old does not acknowledge him at all. ?

Be patient: A 3yo can be hard to predict when a new kid shows up & takes a lot of time he believes should be his. The 4mo is a threat to his home dominance. Be patient & enjoy private time with both separately or together.Let him know you enjoy your time with him & you are glad he can feed himself since baby takes so much work. In time he will relax & not see baby as a threat.
