AI and tech powered socialist utopia with UBI, high taxes and functioning capitalism

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

AI and other technological innovations have been huge and a lot of jobs have disappeared being replaced by technology. However, this has not impacted the regular people as the companies that are benefiting from these new technology and their productivity are taxed at very high tax rates, so most of their profits benefit society as a whole, not just a handful of billionaires. There is UBI (universal basic income) that allows people to cover their basic needs without having to worry about food, medical expenses, shelter, energy and even having funds for recreation, electronics, vehicles and so on. Citizens that are involved in value adding projects to society do so not because they have to work to survive, but because it is their passion. People follow their passions and hobbies and this is not detrimental to society. People with drive or ambition are still able to create businesses, to leverage technology and to increase their personal wealth. There is still a lot of opportunity, but there is no hunger, no poverty, no homelessness and no stress regarding making end meet. All personal wealth over 500 million is taxed at 95%, so it is extremely difficult to be or become a billionaire.

the future is grandchildren
in 2040 I will be 72 and my children 32 and 31 - I hope I have grandchildren and that they live near. I hope my kids are settled workign and have decent places to live. air and watr are clean. i hope that the weather has settled and the enviroment stabalised - but I doudt it and I think my children will be facing more extreme weather. AI will impact their jobs but not to the extent the pessimists worry. I will be retired - but only just as I enjoy work, i will have a rich cultureal and social life and wont be worrying about caring for othes (those years are behind me). I might need to help my kids finaically just as my parents helped me - but they do ok.
