It tells me that humans, though a social animal, tend to take other humans, particularly loved ones as granted. I don't see any change when I see people glued to their smartphones in gatherings.

On 'human tendency to take loved ones granted'
I am sharing below two pictures. First one is a painting, and was very emotionally steering for me. It titled, “Room in New York” (1932). Artist is Edward Hopper (here). Second one, is a photograph. I don't know its origin.

I am not sure why you call it, Taking loved ones for granted.
May be they dont know eachother in the painting, just happen to be in the same room and busy with one older form of print media. Newer generation has newer form of media and multiple type so loved ones are now more taken for granted in the real sense.
Ordinarily I personally want to talk to real human being and can wait for iPhone for later on my own time but that is purely old-fashioned TV also created first such ïndifference".
What I am trying to say is that in some situation you are busy with yours in order to avoid the person/s and in other situation you genuinely want to avoid some persons. There can be several reasons other than taking loved ones for granted. After over forty something years of married life we are left alone and do take each other for granted a whole ,lot more
So in my personal case, yes your comment is very true indeed
That is true uncle! - There could be many meanings behind one painting., and that is it's beauty I guess
