The people who believe a kid in Africa made a working automobile from balloons and that boats are pulling whales from the water and cleaning off thousands of barnacles will be 75-80 then.

That was me. It was a typo. Sorry

Yes, I meant to say 60 or 65 like OP did. Funny thing is I’m about 50.

Sure… OP said over 60, but I think over 65-70 would be more accurate for people who don’t know about generative AI at all.

I haven’t really heard anyone over 65 or whatever espouse the dead internet theory. Could be a trend I don’t know about, I guess.

I’m almost that age, and am technically adept also. I’d say the “old people on Facebook” age is a good bit higher. I’m sure some people who are 65 or 70 understand what AI is too.

Have they? What I’ve seen is people over 50 60 (really 65) have zero idea that AI exists and consistently fall for obviously absurd Facebook posts.

Edit, I see where some of these responses came from - OP said over 60, and I meant to say over 60 too, not 50.

Are you seriously talking about wanger size?

I don’t really understand the question.

As far as transactions, yes, something like Visa takes way less than Bitcoin. For HFT compared to crypto, who knows, but one thing they’re not doing is something intentionally wasteful like proof of work.
