Get ready for Blue Monday.
About Generation Beta, the New Generation (Holy Yap Warning)
Sort:
3rd Monday of the month.
Well anyways,
I wouldn't be shock if this generation will show how doomed we all are.
Artificial intelligences had improve, technologies are starting to be... A little too good, ya‘ know? This generation will be Gen Alpha but more... Brain dead.

Oh shoot! I didn't even think of AI! That's a good point... Think of all those AI-generated Christmas designs for products, and Coca-Cola's AI commercial. Do those invoke the feeling of the ✨🎄Christmas Spirit🎄✨? No! They just invoke a feeling of... Emptiness, and even hopelessness, like the spark of life and imagination is slowly being replaced by AI-generated slop that contains no human emotion or passion...
This quote will sum up my point: “Hey ChatGPT...”
Take note, ChatGPT is more smarter

"Hey ChatGPT, generate me a rap song symbolizing my career and recent controversy, as well as for a distraction from my recent snack product's catastrophic failure."
🎶I'm in the thick of it, everybody knows.🎶
Advance technologies will teach us nothing but a powerful lesson, we humans will make our life more comfortable, but we nerve though of the outcome of our own actions.

Happy New Year, everyone! And this is already an interesting year, because it marks the beginning of the new generation, Generation Beta! Now, I don't want to spark any controversies in this thread, and I only want to share my opinions, so let's keep things chill, and not immediately start bashing on them when they literally just came out of the womb. Also, to mobile users, here is a link to a document of my full post, as it will get cut off. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1usmByZBoM5yk2oRpmxUcbLLCm94EBNko0Bwr5vebNus/edit?usp=sharing
I want to hear your opinions too, so leave a comment once you're done reading! (Boy, you're gonna be here for a while...) I will talk in the future tense, as I am talking about after they are a little older, let's say in 2030 or 2035, even 2040 when they will be teenagers.
Am I scared of what could happen with Gen Beta? A little. Am I also curious? Absolutely. I wonder how Gen Beta will impact society and the Internet, and what they will bring to the table. So, let's reflect on how Gen Alpha was affected by, well, many different factors. Such as...
1: The Lockdown of 2020- As "🦠" spread throughout the world, we had to stay in our homes. This isolated everyone from their friends, and kept Gen Alpha away from school. This had a huge impact on their learning, as well as social skills. This happened around the time that crucial social skills would've been developed, so it could be a culprit as to why kids seem to be so rude and have no manners. They never had a chance to learn how to be nice. This doesn't apply to every Gen Alpha kid though, and it's mainly affected by their...
2: Parents: Parents are also a major part of why Gen Alpha is the way they are. (Most of Gen Alpha's parents are Millennials, by the way.) Simply put, they just shoved the iPad in their kid's faces and called it a day. (NOT ALL PARENTS ARE LIKE THAT, OF COURSE!) This is terrible for mental development, and could possibly have long-term consequences for their overall mental health. And as we all know, on the Internet, you will not keep your innocence for long...
3: The Internet: Want to know where the kids got their "Brainrot" vocabulary from? Why, the Internet, of course! Kids are spending way too much time on the Internet, when they should be away, developing crucial skills. Let's go to YouTube, for example, since that's where I spend most of my time. Kids YouTube content is no longer about creating entertaining, funny, and maybe even educational content. Nope, it's all about views and that sweet, sweet cash money. Kids also aren't really being monitored for what they look at either, so they could potentially access stuff they shouldn't see, and be left traumatized...
I feel that there are many more reasons as to how Gen Alpha is today, so if you want to leave your own opinions, DO IT. PLEASE, I WANT TO SEE ALL OF YOUR PERSPECTIVES ON THIS!!!
So, back to Gen Beta. There isn't much to say about them right now, as they JUST GOT HERE, but let's make some predictions. Their parents will most likely be Gen Z, who are much more familiar with the Internet, and can easily incorporate it into their kid's lives, without it being harmful. I hope that Gen Z parents won't make the same mistakes as Millennials (Who are technically Gen Y.) Not disciplining kids properly, allowing them too much Internet access, and more are mistakes, and should be viewed upon as something we should avoid. I know that there are plenty of good Gen Y parents out there, and I appreciate them for raising good kids. Anyways, it's 2:30 AM right now, and I think I've written enough... Hopefully we don't get any heated arguments, and instead some nice, calm, and civil discussions about the new generation... Please... That's all I ask from you...
Gen beta’s attention span ain’t making it through this one!
Hey man... that's a lot of words.
