It's not but ok. Just responding to another version of "This generation is screwed" that has been happening literally since Socrates.

There has been a growing amount of evidence for years that modern technology is not without it's side effects (mental health issues due to social media use, destruction of attention spans among the youth due to cell phone use, erosion of societal discourse and straight up political manipulation, and now we're seeing impacts to cognitive ability from LLMs).

So .. people in the past were supposedly wrong about the next generation being "screwed", and therefore we all know that makes it completely impossible for any new generation at any point in history to ever be in any way worse or more screwed than previous generations. Because some people in the past were supposedly incorrect with similar assertions.
