Generation gap?

I am sharing a screen shot of a separate conversation on this platform started by a student. I found it be coming from a young fellow who was inspired by these words of wlb and best pay etc. But then there may be a mature (10+yr ex) chap who reverted to him to focus on learning. I was amazed by the confidence of the author of the post in reverting to that fellow while taking a shot at his pseudo name also ( which was quite funny actually).

Just wanted opinion from fellow folks especially those who may be from the late 80s Or early 90s about this shift in attitude and confidence that this young generation has. I see it as positive in terms of the confidence that this post and comment eludes and negative in terms of the cockiness it seems to show as if students who are not even out of college know everything in the world. Just wanted thoughts from others also.
Full disclaimer - This is my attempt to understand the persona and psyche of the new generation, not demean them.

Not all, but I have seen this "Humare zamane me" attitude Yes you struggled Yes you have made it big after a lot of hardwork

There's no harm if someone half the age, achieves the same success in half the time

The younger generation has lot of technology at their disposal, it will accelerate their growth (if used correctly)

I'm an oldie but I support the student here. However, they can be more respectful in response, not because talking to an elder but it shows how well they have been raised
