That’s fair. But presumably the people who become senior citizens as time marches forward will be more comfortable with tech than present day senior citizens. There would be a tipping point where less people need in person services.
- gremlinsinc 4y agoThere are people retiring in the next decade, who entered the workforce in 92, when the internet began to take off, or even earlier but they grokked it pretty quick because they worked in tech fields, or programming, etc. I'm 43, and am a zennial, born analog, grew up digital. Most of the people I know who aren't technical, can do way more than the people their same age could 10 or 20 years ago. New tech pops up, they are still adopters, or I am anyways. I'm slowing down a little I guess (re: TikTok), but I still 'get' it, and could use it if I chose to. My point is, I think we're just about already there. My wife's dad who never had a smartphone before, or a laptop, etc got one after her mom died in 2020, and he's using it like its always been attached at the hip.
