My second to youngest brother is technically illiterate. Meanwhile my eldest brother is very technically literate and both are completely different generation (younger than boomer) but of the conservative mindset .
my youngest brother is technically literate and liberal. He’s of the same generation as the illiterate brother.
A does not equal B. These kind of fallacy arguments of ‘how generations be’ really need to stop.
What are you talking about? Dinner of these senators can barely string together a thought. Can they email? They certainly can't foresee the societal implications of AI, it's impact, how it works. How can they offer oversight?
You just described several of my relatives of the younger generation . Just cuz a person was born in the technical era does not make them a technical genius.
I hope they wouldn't oversee technology or anything else they dont understand. The are billions of people but qualified to be a senator. I'm happy you know some
Which is an issue if their job is regulating tbe use of that technology, wouldn't you say?
If that were the entire argument, yes. But I see you're desperately dodging the ageism part of the discussion here. You are fooling no one.
Lol no. I never said anything ageist and neither did you in your comment. You said, you know people who are tech illiterate as well and I said wouldnt that be a problem if their job was regulating technology? The point I was making was that someone uneducated and unfamiliar with current tech, shouldnt be making laws about it. You even suggested that they were of the "tech generation" or something like that, how is anything I said even remotely ageist at all? Also, "desperately dodging" lmao you kind of seem like an idiot.
This comment made no sense. Go back to eating the walls. Bye.
