The public doesn't even have the capacity to support all the babies that are outright abused. A lot of researchers will get more notches on their precious CV but let's be real, if anyone gave a shit about random babies then screen time is so far down the list that they're never going to get there under any rational prioritization of who needs assistance.
They’ll be sold software to correct the damage.
Gen Z is the first generation to score lower on standardized tests than previous generations.
