Do younger generations still relate to the physical world as we did before?
Many of us here now have gone through the shift from analogue to digital. Almost all physical objects that matter have been digitised. I recall having a similar conversation with my mother 20 years ago when we got our first colour printer. She was thrilled to print out a picture, but I needed to understand why she preferred an inferior quality to a digital one. I was content with either a digital image or the developed 35mm camera reel. However, she explained that it wasn't about the physical object but the process involved and the control it gave her.
I know several young adults who have never stepped into a bank, and the younger ones want Robolox money or some other form of "digital cash" over physical cash.
I'd love to hear more about the kids who want Roblox money first -- is this something you've seen first-hand?
It's hard to anticipate the magnitude of things like this -- it seems to take forever, but then decades suddenly pass, and now it's a different world.
