Most people born in these birth years don't act like this I'm poking fun at the ones who do

This argument about generationology is pointless so here's my idea:

• If you own an iPad, you're Gen Alpha
• If you get a phone, you graduate to Gen Z
• If you say "skibidi," you are demoted back to Gen Alpha
• If you install ChatGPT, you are demoted even more to Gen Beta
• If you get a PC, you graduate to Millennial

Do you guys agree with this new system?

5 is when memories get vivid and 11 is the last year of the concrete operational stage.

Only including 1990-2013 since 1990 is the first to have part of their childhood in the 21st century and 2013 is the youngest year than can be on this sub as of now without violating Reddit TOS

1990: 1995-2001

1991: 1996-2002

1992: 1997-2003

1993: 1998-2004

1994: 1999-2005

1995: 2000-2006

1996: 2001-2007

1997: 2002-2008

1998: 2003-2009

1999: 2004-2010

2000: 2005-2011

2001: 2006-2012

2002: 2007-2013

2003: 2008-2014

2004: 2009-2015

2005: 2010-2016

2006: 2011-2017

2007: 2012-2018

2008: 2013-2019

2009: 2014-2020

2010: 2015-2021

2011: 2016-2022

2012: 2017-2023

2013: 2018-2024

2-4 is early, 5-8 is core, 9-11 is late. This is the range Piaget used IIC so I'm wondering what y'all's thoughts are

So according to the chart below, Roblox has divided users into 6 age groups: Under 9, 9-12, 13-15, 16-17, 18-20, 21+.

https://preview.redd.it/94vk2ao4800h1.png?width=480&format=png&auto=webp&s=5ab06c32d40a3c62bb6bb0572a05a76c946aee1c

Since the minimum age to create a Roblox account is 5, we can just say the "Under 9" category only applies to 5-8 year olds.

So for each birth year, here are the years they were in each age group (I'm only including 2007+ since they were the first to become adults the year this was released (2025) & I'm stopping at 2013 since that's the last year currently allowed on Reddit):

In my last post I made 3 Gen Z ranges (1996-2011, 1998-2013, 2001-2016) but I have 4 new ones!!! Which one are you choosing?

https://preview.redd.it/y87ecqg65uyg1.png?width=1430&format=png&auto=webp&s=25b53537c313101617c211abc086286f04954b05

1999-2014

There are a lot of good firsts and lasts supporting this range

• First in elementary school post-Facebook | last in elementary school pre-COVID
• First to spend most of elementary school post-smartphone | last to spend most of elementary school pre-ChatGPT
• First in middle school post-iPad | last in middle school pre-Iran War

And here's how I'd cut it up

• 1996-2001: Zillennial
• 1999-2003: Early Z
• 2004-2009: Core Z
• 2010-2014: Late Z
• 2012-2017: Zalpha

2000-2015

There are a lot of good firsts and lasts supporting this range

• First in elementary school post-Indian Ocean tsunami | last in elementary school pre-Cocomelon
• First to spend most of elementary school post-GFC | last to spend most of elementary school pre-Ukraine War

And here's how I'd cut it up

• 1997-2002: Zillennial
• 2000-2004: Early Z
• 2005-2010: Core Z
• 2011-2015: Late Z
• 2013-2018: Zalpha

1997-2013

There are a lot of good firsts and lasts supporting this range

• First in elementary school post-9/11 | last in elementary school pre-TikTok dominance
• First to spend most of elementary school post-Indian Ocean tsunami | last to spend most of elementary school pre-YouTube Shorts dominance
• First in middle school post-Start of GFC | last in middle school pre-AI Slop dominance

And here's how I'd cut it up

• 1994-1999: Zillennial
• 1997-2001: Early Z
• 2002-2008: Core Z
• 2009-2013: Late Z
• 2011-2016: Zalpha

1997-2014

There are a lot of good firsts and lasts supporting this range

• First in elementary school post-9/11 | last in elementary school pre-COVID
• First to spend most of elementary school post-Indian Ocean tsunami | last to spend most of elementary school pre-ChatGPT
• First in middle school post-Start of GFC | last in middle school pre-Iran War

And here's how I'd cut it up

• 1994-1999: Zillennial
• 1997-2002: Early Z
• 2003-2008: Core Z
• 2009-2014: Late Z
• 2012-2017: Zalpha

So out of these 4 more ranges, which one is your favorite?

This post contains content not supported on old Reddit. Click here to view the full post

Before we start, I don't actually use these ranges, this is just an experimental range to see the sub's general consensus.

So the first range is going to be 2017 as the start of Gen Alpha.

2017 borns were the first to be born during the AI revolution (2017-present) and the first to still be in kindergarten when ChatGPT released.

So they would score much higher in AI literacy than those born 2015-2016 who were in 1st-2nd grade when ChatGPT released.

Also I was thinking could we make the previous generation start earlier? Like 2001s were the first to still be in college when ChatGPT releaed, although this is a bad social marker since we're forgetting about their childhood experiences.

But for the sake of this experimental range I'm just going to use 2001-2016 & 2017-2032 for 16-year intervals that we could adjust later.

• Early Gen Z: 2001-2005
• Core Gen Z: 2006-2011
• Late Gen Z: 2012-2016
• Early Gen Alpha: 2017-2021
• Core Gen Alpha: 2022-2027
• Late Gen Alpha: 2028-2032

I don't actually use this range, this is just experimental.

Another good range I was thinking of is 1996-2011, since 1996 were the first to spend most of K-5 pre-Facebook and 2011 were the last to spend of K-5 pre-COVID.

So based off that range we would have 1996-2011 as Gen Z & 2012-2027 as Gen Alpha.

• Early Gen Z: 1996-2000
• Core Gen Z: 2001-2016
• Late Gen Z: 2007-2011
• Early Gen Alpha: 2012-2016
• Core Gen Alpha: 2017-2022
• Late Gen Alpha: 2023-2027

And lastly we got 1998-2013, using the same logic with 2017 & ChatGPT and applying it to 2014 & COVID.

• Early Gen Z: 1998-2002
• Core Gen Z: 2003-2008
• Late Gen Z: 2009-2013
• Early Gen Alpha: 2014-2018
• Core Gen Alpha: 2019-2024
• Late Gen Alpha: 2025-2029

Now which range is my favorite? Honestly probably 1996-2011. It has the most reason in it. But that's just my opinion. I'm asking this sub to pick from these 3 ranges which one is the best?

I unironically make jokes about Ohio and I've ironically said "Skibidi" so much I think I ruined the series' reputation despite the fact it's a great series and sadly it was destroyed by INVIZ
