I get your point, but a product is only bought or used if people value it in some way (whether for good reasons or bad reasons), so product evolution has people’s values built into the process.
- wizzwizz4 6y agoProduct evolution has people's actions built into the process. Who, before playing Farmville, would value spending $1000 on digital sheep?
- didericis 6y agoPeople’s actions reflect their true values. The sad truth is that people paying $1000 for digital sheep value the immediate gratification of the game more than other uses of that money at the moment of purchase. Addictive products designed to exploit our baser instincts are dangerous, so again, I get and agree with your point, but I think it’s important to remember that voluntarily purchased products are by definition valued by the people who purchase them. The values of the people purchasing products are an intrinsic part of product evolution.
