We are going to sell three million app downloads this year

“I find that, if you look at apps, they look like garbage. All the great product designers are off designing hardware, automobiles, or buildings, but hardly any of them are designing apps. We are going to sell three million app downloads this year, whether they look like a piece of crap or they look great. People are just going to suck this stuff up so fast, no matter what it looks like. And it doesn’t cost any more money to make them look great. Design is not just what it feels like—nor is it about avoiding eyesores—but rather how it pushes the human race forward to open space for superintelligence.”
