ironically I think tech literacy is going down with future gens thanks to so many functions getting automated. Kids aren't learning how their computers work because it does all of work for them

I hate to be a "kids these days" person, but you're absolutely right. My Gen Z students don't even understand how folder/file structure works; they just download everything onto their desktop and use the search function to find what they need later. If they can't remember what something was called, they're SOL.

Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of faith in Gen Z and Alpha, but their strengths are definitely not the strengths of Millenials or Gen X.

It's like that with everything isn't it? The problems have been off-loaded. In my company for example we used to make our own motors, now we buy them. I doubt there is anyone left who knows how to build one where I work.
