do younger developers have an advantage over older developers?

I often hear that companies favour young devs compared to old devs. Probably because it costs less to do so.
However, I also hear that experience is the number one reason a dev is usually hired. Also when companies are hiring, they look for people with 5 years of experience, etc.

Do you think think young devs have advantage, or the opposite is the case?
