What a relief we have left behind in the 1920s with all that succession of intertwined crises that seemed impossible to resolve! What a relief that we no longer have to think about whether democracy is in danger or live in the permanent uncertainty of whether there will be a reactionary retreat from everything that cost us so much to win!

Just as we were finally aware of the physical limits of the planet and the doughnut economy succeeded capitalism, we were also aware of the limits of our democracies with mass debates that prevented (at last!) cruel authoritarian demagogues who did not believe in the values of democracy from seizing power again. I don't know how we could live with this permanent anguish... . No more gerontocracies, no more idycracies, no more techno-auritarism, no more perpetuation in power. AI is no longer a private business of billionaires who (finally!) were forced to distribute 90% of their fortune, as had already happened in the 50s of the last century. It has put itself only at the service of solving the great problems of the world. What a relief too that money no longer moves the world!

All this was possible because the Constitution of the Land of Ferrajoli was approved and launched in 2030, the Magna Carta that protected all our global problems. The nature of which we are a part and without which we cannot live is especially protected. The Constitution provides a framework for everything to be solved diplomatically. Since its approval, the wars have ended and the genocidal people of the past have been severely judged. Yesterday we celebrated the feast of #Nevermore.

If I have to describe what life is like now, the word that comes out is calm. Without constant threats to our safety and well-being, day-to-day life is placid.

Quantum computers combined with artificial intelligence are solving humanity's most pressing problems. People are more monitored, crime has fallen, but individual privacy is no longer sacrosanct. Everything is paid for with digital currency, and the carbon footprint of each individual or company is tracked. People are more or less happy, but many do not like it.

Today in 2040, artificial intelligence is everywhere. In the world of work, it automates all administrative tasks and coordinates tasks to be carried out by humans. In the judicial sphere, judges and juries will be impartial and incorruptible. However, 2050 should be the decade of balance. We need to rehumanize our society. We need to rediscover real social links in this sanitized world.

In 2040, I envision a world profoundly transformed by technology and social change. Cities will likely be smarter, complemented by smart infrastructure that optimizes resource use, reduces pollution, and improves quality of life. Transportation will be electric and autonomous, with cars, trains and planes moving without human intervention, reducing traffic and increasing efficiency. Technology will continue to evolve, with artificial intelligence playing a crucial role in our daily lives, from personalized medicine to home management. There will be devices that can monitor our health in real time, anticipating diseases and improving quality of life.

By 2040, communities across Europe are living on renewable energy, sustainable agriculture and efficient water management. Rainwater harvesting is a standard practice in every household, reducing water waste and ensuring a clean, self-sufficient supply. Cities run on decentralized, green energy grids powered by solar, wind and water sources. Public transportation is fully electric and urban areas are designed for walking and biking. Small businesses thrive with local, sustainable production supported by county governments that minimize waste. Technology is improving daily life and creating a balance with nature, ensuring a healthier, greener and more resilient future for all.
