It's abhorrent that VCs and board members do not push their companies to at minimum involve behavioral specialists in their decision-making. Yes, I understand they are driven by profits, but they are humans too, many self-proclaimed to be "mission-driven" and wanting to "move humanity forward," yet they pour billions of dollars into literally engineering addiction under the guise of "retention" and "engagement" by "growth PMs," with no one in the process concerned for the effects of these products on users' mental health. They lower the threshold for addiction then quickly abdicate all responsibility by blaming users for not exhibiting adequate self-control and discipline. It is Evil and that is not an exaggeration.
