As I hear from quite a few people, and also from my own experience with some of the co-workers at the office, the youngsters are quite different to the 'oldies'. Very much similar to what you mentioned. They seem to me expecting to own the whole world, but already 'tired' after a few hours of work iin a day.

Interesting to see how this works out in a few decades from now.

The image, the one about the top quark pairs, is - almost - art! Of course, read the linked article and tried to understand it. I love to read about science, although I never really worked in science beyond the mid-90s, when I was working at the Dutch Research Laboratory (TNO). Since then, I decided to pursue a way more commercial track in business life. When I find the time, I plan to dig a but more into quarks... Well, I like to better understand quantum physics, since I believe this will dramatically change our world, in conjunction with AI. For a reason, we call this era, the 4th industrial revolution. Perhaps the most impactful revolution we embarked on. But time will tell.
