Some probably will be, but others might be geniuses.

It’s actually the same today there are older people who are tech geniuses (ever heard of the GNU foundation) and there are also others who might not even know how to use a pay terminal.

It all has to do with their exposure to the technology, what they use it for, and how much they use it. The thing is though just because of technology is around while somebody is growing up in that generation doesn’t mean that they have experience with it, a person could have grown up during the technological boom of the late 90s and not know anything about computers because they never had one.

So some people who grew up in the 70s, 80s, and 90s are going to be very good with computers because they will have had a lot of experience with them and the problem solving needed to operate systems back then. Though other people who may have grown up in the same time probably don’t have those skills because they never had experience with computers due to the circumstances they grew up.

So it’s not necessarily a yes or no question it’s really based on whether or not they have experience and interest to learn. Though also it will depend on how many of them are willing to change with the times. Though with the direction that technology is going towards more mobile simplified interfaces it might not necessarily be not understanding it might be more not wanting to adopt that style. Which I can totally get behind in my opinion.
