It’s been four years since Jobs’ death, the anniversary for which was earlier this week. Ive said today at the Vanity Fair New Establishment Summit in San Francisco that recent films about Jobs don’t grasp the whole picture. Instead, these efforts are hijacking Jobs legacy “with agendas that are different than those of your close family and your friends,” he said.Ive said that the “ridiculous things” that have been written about Jobs were not written with Apple’s creative process in mind. “Try to remember what he was doing and that he was having arguments with chip designers on this side and thermal engineers on that side,” he said. Ive added that Jobs’ propensity for shutting people down was a product of his ability to focus. “It doesn’t mean that you’re an asshole,” he said. “It doesn’t mean that your hobby is arguing.”
