I feel like the people I interact with irl don’t even know how to boot from a USB. People here probably know how to do some form of coding or at least navigate a directory through the command line. Stg I would bet money on the average person not even being able to create a Lemmy account without assistance.
I disagree. The amount of stagnant backwards ignorance about what AI and llms are and how they function would suggest to me there is only a cursory level knowledge of technology on this platform.
Like you said just enough to create a Lemmy account without assistance but not enough to understand the nuance of emerging tech.
High school kids and university students.
Those younger don’t have a clue, people with jobs don’t have a life, people with kids don’t have time, people who are older don’t give a damn.
