I feel like the boomers are like the dinosaurs, they are too stupid to adapt to the new environment caused by the asteroid (climate change) and the Zoomers are the early mammals who aren't that much dumber, they can adapt to the new environment and survive and thrive.<br><br>I believe that the biggest hinderance to the coming of the singularity is the boomer mindset, which is predominantly conservative without a proper understanding of the technology, and boomer mindset is still the mainstream mindset. <br><br>I think this is not a biological problem, more of a cultural one. As long as the boomer mindset is mainstream, we might be stuck with the mindset of "one shouldn't change their ways just because of some fancy technology" and similar, and that's an incredible hinderance to the coming of the singularity if you think about it. <br><br>The zoomers on the other hand, are the generation that grew up with the internet, so they are more likely to use it as a tool for growth and bettering of the human race. They are less likely to hinder the technological progress and more likely to adapt to the new tech and use it to better their lives and lives of those around them.
