I don’t know if this theory is right, but if it is wrong, it is wrong in a very satisfying, relief-inducing way that mitigates the children-of-corn feeling I’ve had for a while. The kids may or may not be okay, but I can move on now 😎

Maybe I’m overfitting some very limited and sparse observational data, but I think there’s something real here. Something analogous, in fact, to deep learning AIs. Gen Z is deep-learning the world rather than GOFAI-learning it like every previous generation.

If we consider human experience as a problem solving/ exploratory mechanism, then the context of how this gen is fed the input may have a relevance to your theory. Constant peerage on social media, always online, omnipresent google, life measured in tweets & virtues of virality.
