I do agree with your statement, the world keeps changing and we needs to change alongside to quickly adapt the new ways otherwise we will be left behind. More than a decade ago btc came into the picture to revolutionize the financial system and introduced a new and alternative way of transactions, many people were against it initially but now people are willing to accept it just to keep up with this changes.
There are a lot of changes like this and people are trying to keep up. This process will progress over time because people over a certain age do not have the desire to engage in different pursuits in terms of innovation. Although some seem to be against innovations, as I said, many of them do not prefer to give up old habits. So I can't blame them either because they have habits that have developed over the years.
As time goes by, the process of keeping up with changes in the world will accelerate. Thanks to technology, innovations will be introduced and adopted by more people.
Douglas Adams (a famous author) has a great quote about this; Anything invented before you were born is natural order of things, anything invented between you are 15 and 35 is exciting news and you may make a career out of it, and anything invented after you are 35 is against the natural order of things. This makes me laugh when I read about it, and maybe nowadays the technology is high enough that it might be a little bit later than 35, maybe it's 40-45 years old now, but it's true.
Like I have seen crypto when I was younger and seen it as exciting and made a career out of it, and yet when I see the new AI technology people use in art? That feels like that's wrong and I do not really like it, that feels wrong. How come crypto is so normal to me and yet AI is not normal? Well, Douglas Adams apparently knows why I feel that way, lol. In the end, sometimes we may not like it, but some 15-20 year old kid will see it as great, and will create a great career out of it in the end.
