Phone Bosses Its Owner

IN YOUR MIND : FETCH MY EMAILS ! NAVIGATE TO JOHN'S HOUSE ! SHOW ME THE NEWS ! SEND THIS PHOTO TO LIZZY ! Y-Y-YES MASTER. IN REALITY : make me play that video of the cat again Y-Y-YES MASTER.

A man commands an anthropomorphic smartphone to fetch emails, navigate, show the news, and send a photo, while the phone obediently replies, “Y-Y-YES MASTER.” In reality, the phone dominates the man and makes him replay a cat video, parodying how people are controlled by their phones and endlessly consume trivial content.
