I think it's going to be really interesting because the millennials are really the last generation to really have a lot of people who understand technology because back then you had to learn technology to be able to use technology, but right now the technology is easy enough that you can use it without really knowing anything about it.
Most of the time it has nothing to do with smart or dumb, it's just which skills of people earned and people which skills haven't people learned, but some skills are tedious to learn if there isn't some reward for it, if you weren't going to be able to play the latest video game at the end of it, a lot of millennial boys wouldn't have learned Tech. It's a tedious skill to learn.
On the other hand though, skills are skills and they're often quite useful, and so people who disregard the effort and aptitude that goes into learning a skill do so at their own peril...
