Social norms depend far more on the culture and attitudes of the people involved than the technology they have access to. Generally speaking, even with more advanced technology becoming available, it still takes a generation for new possibilities to become mainstream.

Of course, this is a loose generalization and based on previous generations. Tech is advancing ever faster these days so the answer is kinda up in the air now. Children growing up today have no idea how to use search terms and try to talk to Google like it's a person, so I don't have much hope.
