Janhit: The Evolution of Generations: From Baby Boomers to Gen Beta | ABP NEWS

The concept of categorizing generations based on birth years began in the 20th century, with American sociologists leading the way. The Baby Boomer generation (1946-1964) was the first to be defined, a time when most people relied on radio and newspapers for information. The Gen X (1965-1980) era witnessed the rise of TV, ration cards, and landline phones, laying the foundation for modern India. Gen Y (1981-1996) grew up with mobile phones and the internet, making them more self-aware. Then comes Gen Z (1997-2010), who are well-versed in smartphones, Wi-Fi, and streaming platforms. They enhance their knowledge through search engines and navigate the economy in a rapidly changing world. The youngest generation, Gen Alpha (2011-2024), is already swiping before they can speak, with advanced digital skills. Looking ahead, Gen Beta (2025-2039) will grow up amidst AI and global complexities, further shaping the digital age.
