You said it perfectly, thank you!

I've always noticed that the generation that grew up with smartphones has little understanding of websites, forums, legendary authors, and so on. And this transformation happened very quickly. Frighteningly quickly.

As a member of the older generation, I don't know if I'll be able to fully adapt to these new trends.

Probably. I do wonder whether there will be some legislation about needing to register a "hit" on a site if AI goes in there and does some digging, instead of a user. You're essentially sending a messenger in to do a task.

It's difficult to write a law that's "correct" and satisfies all parties. And also lobbying from large companies is quite strong.
