We are not as strong as technology's pull.
Technology has forever changed the world we live in. We're online, in one way or another, all day long. Our phones and computers have become reflections of our personalities, our interests, and our identities. They hold much that is important to us.
Technology is an interesting subject, people thinking: how much good, and how much bad, does it inherently carry?
As we become more codependent with technology, it's not necessarily based on our desire for the technology but our desire for interconnectivity and wanting to stay connected, which is a natural human instinct. The technology itself is kind of emotionally manipulative.
You can't think of technology as separate from all of our human drama anymore.
We already have our phones, but other wearables, and those technologies are going to want to know when you're deciding things and then offer some kind of input subtle or less so on that moment.

The nerds are running the world now.
Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.
I think the next big thing in music, and it's kind of because I come from the tech industry, is actually, I think it's the platform... Spotify is incredibly interesting. I think the platform is becoming the star.
The further you get into technology, the further you go into gaming. That's the general rule.
Apple was very important in terms of disrupting the music business and remaking the television business. They made it harder for people to make money on the things that they produce. In news, they've created Apple News, and they've tried to steer people towards information.
I grew up with a computer, and many of my friends were people I met online.
I was a grad student at UC Berkeley when I bought my Apple II and it suddenly because a lot more interesting than school.
Everyone I look up to is bringing me into the tech world. You'd be surprised by all the music people in it, invested in it.
I'm kind of concerned the combined effect, not only Google, all these companies is kind of to make us more boring and that seems the opposite of what the Internet was supposed to be.
Bill Gates has always been a mentor and inspiration for me even before I knew him. Just growing up, I admired how Microsoft was mission-focused.
Regardless of what the naysayers believe about human interaction and social media, the data show us that the abundance of technology is actually increasing the abundance of happiness all over the world.
The iPad changed my life!
