I don't see that in kids nowadays. Instead, kids of the present generation talk about K-pop, iPhones, and Instagram.

Physical books will almost certainly never die out, but I would expect prices to continue to creep up, and publishers to more and more focus on premium presentations of established authors and classics. They will increasingly become art pieces, decorations, and perhaps even status symbols for the higher classes.

I'm afraid of AI learning to imagine, create new plots and worlds and us, humans, will not be able to keep up. It's something truly frightening, and I hope there will be laws against AI-generated authors, if those become a thing, like AI artists have.
