>accidently additive Zynga and King do not hire psychologists because their products are "accidentally" addictive. None of this shit is "accidentally" addictive. They explicitly track "engagement" and screen time as metrics to increase. Addictivity is not an accident! This isn't like with drugs where we just pulled a chemical that already existed out of nature and it just happens to press the same pleasure center buttons as chemicals in our brain. These companies make their products addicting and addictive on purpose. It is the intended goal of most businesses today.
