I know this is a pipedream, little more than expecting the kiddies to magically rise above their material conditions, but I hope that it actually results is a reaction against AI and that being born into a world of slop gives a significant portion of the coming generation some 6th sense to tell slop better than we can.

I'm hoping for some idealist fantasy because if not, gen alpha and their successors won't be disappointments, they'll be downright incapable of coherent thought. They'll let LLMs and other misapplied tools do their thinking for them in every aspect of life.
