A future based on the past (Un futuro basato sul passato)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040, in 18 I would like the world to be completely different, but I would particularly like to see machines or means of road transport being abolished forever in the future. Indeed, my future is also about the past, because I would like to live in a way in which animals are ‘used’, but to use in a positive sense, in my view the animal in general and in the world was born not only as a companion to humans but also to help them. Indeed, I would like to live in a world where machines are replaced by, for example, coaches with horses or elephants or camels depending on the place in the world in which you are located. However, this does not mean that all means of transport should be abolished, because aircraft or trains or vessels cannot be replaced by animals, including for their welfare. So in the future I would like to “use” animals, but always in their respect, to change the world: both in the climate field, because this would lead to a reduction in pollution and thus help and stop climate change and in the cultural field, because I believe that using all the means that we can have to survive, without always inventing something new, can help people to organise themselves and open up their mind-set.

Given that I am by nature pessimistic, I foresee a future of slow degradation, marked by stagnation and decline. However, I want to hope for those who will come in a sustainable future, characterized by continuous progress and prosperity. A sustainable future is one in which we continue to make progress in areas such as renewable energy, agriculture and sustainable transport. In this scenario, we will have successfully tackled the challenges of climate change and built resilient and sustainable communities that can adapt to changing conditions. This future will be characterized by a strong global economy, with continued investment in new technologies and industries. In addition, this future will see the increasing use of digital technologies to improve the quality of life of people around the world but above all I hope that we can "erase" the word war from the vocabulary of every citizen and that there are no more poor and even diseases such as cancer. I hope that utopia can become a reality.

2050 will bring many changes in our lives as technology continues to shape our world. Advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics and biotechnology will change work processes and enable new ways of living. Many professions will be automated, but new ones will also appear, requiring specialized skills. Despite advances in technology, it will also be important to preserve the environment. In the fight against climate change, countries and companies will invest in renewable energy and sustainable solutions. Cities will become smarter, with greater use of electric vehicles, sustainable buildings and advanced infrastructure. Health and longevity will become a key topic. With the help of advanced medical technologies, people will live longer and healthier lives. 2050 is expected to bring about a more cohesive, technologically advanced, but also more sustainable society, where the balance between progress and nature will be crucial for the future.

The works will be accessible remotely and lively according to their desire, the work will be creative, because monotony and repetitive works will be taken over by technological solutions, transport will be autonomous and only enthusiasts will drive their cars for entertainment, world peace and conflicts will be managed expeditiously and safely - the environment will be monitored everywhere, people will be identified. This is a bit more complicated in terms of privacy, but everything will be arranged in such a way that it will not be abused.
