   I am more and more convinced that young people have a much better understanding of technology and especially its impact on society.

      Absolutely not:

      Do you really think young people around 14-16 understand the impact of doomscrolling & 15 sec videos on their brain capacities?

      To put just one example.

         The problem with that though, they don't really get to see what great feats a healthy adult brain is allegedly capable of, for example from their parents, nor their teachers if we're being honest for a millisecond. So why bother? Offline adult brains have failed at preventing any of this - nor are they more successful. It's really not brain health that predicts success in 2026.
