Looks to me like Jobs uses the entire exchange as a way of undermining Noah's performance in the movie:

"I invited him here today to see how I really act" etc



It's a fairly standard comedy pattern: start with a celebrity impersonation, then have the impersonated celebrity come out and critique the performance. SNL uses it a lot, e.g., (the real) George H. W. Bush coming on and critiquing Dana Carvey.
