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.

Se på mig
When you sit in a café in the sun, people talk. The cell phones are gone. You look into each other's eyes and take an interest in each other. Respects differences, sexuality, skin tones and attitudes. They no longer judge each other. There is peace and quiet in the world. No one feels superior to anyone else. The focus is on the contact, interaction and respect between people. There is peace and no stress.

Ma maison du futur
Always very connected. A detached house that is enough for itself. Photovoltaic panel, water recycling. Have warm in winter and cool in summer. Naturally I have a greenhouse that allows me to eat fruits and vegetables that I produce myself. There will also be cameras for my safety. I would very much like to see other propulsion modes for my vehicle develop, with solar panels to charge my car.

Czy to bajka, czy nie bajka?
A better future... We drive electric cars, and electricity to them is provided by wind and nuclear power plants. Non-organic plastic replaced glass, in a garbage incineration plant with efficient filters made waste pits finally unnecessary. The air in Polish cities is suitable for breathing even in winter, and in summer we are not afraid of drought and lack of water. And instead of arming, we spend money on health protection and equal opportunities for children and adolescents. All this may be possible, but I'll put it between the fairy tales...

Den gröna framtiden
I would like to see a future where there has been a major change for the benefit of the environment and the future of the planet. Solar, wind and hydropower have replaced fossil energy sources. Buildings, houses, etc. are equipped to be self-sufficient both in terms of energy and, for example, basic raw materials such as potatoes and the like. Public transport has switched entirely to electric vehicles and there are incredible high-speed trains that can compete with flights between major cities.
