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

      Should we then give them the vote, right to drive/drink/gamble, right to consent?

      I'm more and more convinced that young people (Gen Alpha is <17) have no idea what is good and right for the broader scope than themselves.

         Understanding technology and doing something like drinking are not equivalent, what are you on about?

            Because at the root of it is judgement and taste, something we are well aware they lack when it comes to the things I listed, yet somehow we're going to say they understand the broader pros and cons of AI well enough such that their use of it as a pejorative is damning of what AI is actually worth.
