When I was young I too thought I knew all I needed to know. The older I get the more I understand that experience is very important.
It's not in your "self-interest", the way you mean it, to review your ideas and believes from when you were younger and realize that with your extra experience you see things differently now.
And just to be 100% clear, I am all for having younger people in critical positions and don't try to argue that one is better than the other.
My reply was on how age matters. Don't know why you try to twist it to a generational flame-war.
It's like saying the 16yo chess champion, or the 18yo self made billionaire
Less likely to ask Google how an ad showed up on their kid's iPhone, for example.
Pointless anecdote, but my friend, who is a well educated non-tech white collar professional in their upper 20s who is very active on tiktok/IG, recently let on that they believed cell phones communicated directly with satellites. I asked them why they thought dead zones existed in the countryside, and they said that was probably because there wasn't a satellite overhead. I asked them why they thought they were called "cellular phones", and after a minute of pondering it must be because the phones are very small.
What really matters is if she and her assistants can do anything about the Big Tech problem or not. Otherwise it's a huge waste of time and nothing happens.
Obviously not a be-all, and highly dependent on experience (e.g. are you 32 and spent all your life in academia, or 32 and have 10 years of industry experience, or somewhere in between).
You can also make a myriad of applicable observations based on age, but ultimately it's probably relevant because she is the youngest person in that position ever.
