"I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:
1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things."
-- Douglas Adams
Re my previous Adam's quote: it resonates with me because when I was in my 20's - 30's I loved geeking-out on new tech. At 44, I just can't be arsed. It's not that I don't understand it, or appreciate the rate of innovation, I just lack the enthusiasm or inclination of younger me to delve into ChatG-whatever, or AI. The older I'm getting, the more I just want 'real world' peace and quiet.
