One effort at arriving at a kind of concluding statement is that I hear you saying that Generation Z is shaped by this three-headed hydra of anxiety. The first head, the first wave is the arrival of the smartphone. The second is the arrival of the pandemic. And the third is economic reality. Housing today is a source of anxiety and AI is at the edge of being a source of anxiety.

And so you have this sort of three-headed hydra of smartphones, pandemic, and economic realities. I'm also trying to take to heart this idea that there's been this loss of institutional trust, which has nudged young people toward individual sources of authority.

And that includes their preference for high-risk investment strategies, what you call Fafonomics, taking on high-risk investments, meme coins, meme stocks, day trading, sports gambling, These ways of making money are gamified, and they are in some ways a replacement for institutional means of investing and saving money.

And the last bit that I'm trying to remember for myself is this idea that young people are shaped by this tension between social anxiety in the physical world And in the digital world, the difficulty of constructing an algorithmic self, I love this term that you introduced me to, an algorithmic self. I don't think we are meant to to have to discover algorithmic selves.

I think this is kind of bullshit. I don't think people are meant to discover who they are in front of an audience of thousands of strangers they can't see. That doesn't seem evolutionarily fit to the species. It seems kind of effed up. And so I can absolutely see how that would really scramble young people's sense of who they are and what they're for.

What have I missed that you think is really important If a middle-aged guy like me is trying to get his head around not the instrumental question of is this generation more conservative or more liberal, but rather like the forces shaping this generation, what is that summary statement, Miss?
