    Boomers are definitely weak against AI slop.

    I have one parent that’s silent generation and one that’s boomer and the silent generation parent is way more functional on this than the boomer.

    Something about that generation made them pretty unprepared for life.

      Weak to slop and they don’t seem to have an internal “okay that’s enough I should put my phone down” voice.

      Even young people I know who are on their phones a lot have some concept that it’s time to look up and forward, but endless content seems irresistible to the brains of boomers.

        I think their general mindset is that everything is for them so of course more scrolling because it’s more for them!
