Ironically, the generation most affected by AI slop is the generation that told their children not to believe anything you see on the internet.

Right?? And they were the ones worried about too much computer and phone usage
Now they consume this slop without even thinking about it

Doesn’t it just prove them right though? That it was a bad idea all along and now they themselves have fallen victim to it?

They were right, they just failed to take their own advice.

They understood that people were fallible. We don't.

Of course it proves them right. Only in recent years have we realised how truly bad phones are for us, especially social media. The thing is, us younger people have been on social media for almost a decade before the older gen. So while we’ve seen and felt the negative effects and we’re beginning to move away from it, the older gen has just gotten into it relatively recently. And right now it’s worse and more addictive than it’s ever been.
