I was actually one of the first people to officially launch the iPhone because Steve was our boss. …]I started playing with it and said to myself: “Why is there this feeling of attachment? That was the addictive part of it.

I was a smoker in college. This was long before there were computers or anything else to distract you. We used cigarettes to pass the time and not get bored… but I remember when the iPhone came out I thought, “Wow, this can get out of control fast. It’s like a nicotine hit.” It made me think about how humanity is distracted by technology and screens, and how everyone is around each other without actually being together.”
