I bet the ancient Greeks said the same thing about the invention of paper.

I have no clue how historically accurate that is, but my point is that humans have been stupid with short attention spans for a very long time

Not the ancient Greeks, but that's probably because they had parchment and not paper

Actually in the late 1800s people did actually complain about people not being able to use slate anymore since paper was now so much cheaper.
