WionGen Z is officially less intelligent than millennials, first recorded intergenerational IQ dropGen Z is now officially the only generation to measure lower than their predecessors in intelligence. A neuroscientist says this is because short videos and summarised texts are being increasingly relied on, but this is not how the human brain works.

Replying to @⁨Pratai@piefed.ca⁩

just vague citations by a new york post source of all things, and complete silence on how all the “effects of modern technology” have been also seen in other generations, see gen x and boomers loving those ai video misinformations to the point of renouncing their own proven knowledge

And considering your behavior elsewhere in the comments I don’t think you have much actual concern for them either
