Babies born since January 1, 2025 now belong to the Beta generation, and Saskatchewan has already welcomed two newborns from this new era.
This generation will bring together all children born in 2025 and during the following 14 years, thus succeeding the Alpha generation.
Goodbye Alpha, hello Beta
Generation Beta will grow up in a post-pandemic world with more widespread artificial intelligence (AI). From their parents, this generation will learn about confinement and social distancing. Betas will probably use theIA daily and will see the dawn of the 22e century.
However, as with people born at the beginning and end of a generation, the first Beta babies are not likely to be much different from the youngest Alphas.
In Saskatoon, Atticus Marcien Harper Vandale was born 19 minutes after midnight on New Year’s Day. The infant weighed three kilograms at birth.
Less than an hour later, at 1:18 a.m., Brynlee Anne Fredlund, 3.1 kilograms, was the first baby of the year born in Regina.
Both families are doing well.
