It's official, Gen Beta, the next generation, has made its anticipated arrival in the year 2025. Twitter has turned the birth of the new-gen - Gen Beta into a raging trending topic full of hilarious memes, while kids born this year presumably don't know what's going on. A substance edit video is currently all the rage as it shows Gen Z disparaging the newborn generation before 99.9% of them are even born!

"Gen Z hating on 1-day-old Gen Beta in the quotes," which has everyone laughing.

Even though they are still in nappies (or yknow, NOT born), it appears that the internet cannot help but mock this new generation of people, mostly because of their odd names. Social media has been dominated by memes of skepticism, jokes about generational names, and outrageous future forecasts.

With the arrival of these digital-age infants in 2025, Gen Z is already reacting in the quintessential online way: with humor, sarcasm, and a tad bit of snarkiness. What about the memes? Incredibly valuable.


Gen Z’s meme frenzy kicks off the arrival of Gen Beta with hilarious reactions and futuristic predictions

Fans react to Gen Beta memes

As Gen Z humorously voiced their feelings about being the newest "outdated" generation, the generational wars took a comical turn. Some people couldn't contain themselves after realizing their place in the chronology was changing.

One tweet had many nodding in agreement,

“Gen Z two gens out of date now y’all, we're cooked,” perfectly summing up the collective fear of becoming irrelevant.

Another user poked fun at the naming convention itself,

"Who is naming these generations?"

—a question that, let’s face it, we’ve all asked at some point. Gen Beta sounds more like a software release than a human cohort.

The humor didn’t stop there. People began speculating about the future with wild predictions.

"People born in 2049 will be Sigma lmao,"

joked one user, referencing the internet’s obsession with ranking generations like Greek letters. Another tweet lamented the perceived fate of this newest generation, saying,

“They beta find a better planet to live on because sh*t gonna suck here.”

This pessimistic yet hilarious take reflects Gen Z's often-cynical attitude toward the world they’re handing down to Gen Beta.

Others took issue with the term "Beta" itself, with one user asking,

“Is it just me or does this sound like an insult?”

It’s true—being called a "beta" on the internet isn't exactly a compliment. One meme even joked,

"My kids will be beta NOOOOOO??” as if the title alone determined their future prospects.

And in a twist of generational confusion, some wondered what’s next in the lineup:

"Alpha, Beta, what’s next? Gamma?”

It seems like the rapid-fire release of new generations has left some feeling dizzy as if we’re running out of letters to name future human groups.


What’s in store for Gen Beta?

Who are these Beta babies, then? Those born between 2025 and 2039 are anticipated to grow up in a world where increasingly more sophisticated technology rules and automation, and let's be real - artificial intelligence will probably play a significant part in their daily life (prayers in-store).

Research indicates that this generation may have new difficulties, such as reliance on technology and climate change, but also! they will also have special chances in a world influenced by Gen Z and Millennials - read this as a compliment.
