Maybe the kids are gonna be alright, after all.
Anecdotally, all our young family members don't trust A.I. at all.
Once, I asked it a question as a joke, (I think it was about "Labubu"s or something I'm out of touch about); they told me it sounds like fake news ๐. I asked the tool if we could trust it, and it said something like "no, don't trust me", which was hilarious.
I think kids these days have a good bullshit detector, by necessity.
If that is true then it only just developed in the last 2 years. There was a huge shift to the right in youth voters, largely because TikTok promoted Trump.
Yeah I'm very skeptical of that comment. Most people have zero critical thinking skills and the youngest generation are the worst of them all so far.
