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.

It's 2040. Today parents work only half a day, when their children are at school, and spend the rest of the day with them.

Life is comfortable - children have reached upper secondary school age and live at home only on weekends. Quietly independent. It is good to look at the children's independence and remember the kma youth rush. Life has moved away from social media. Real communication is once again important because online life tends to remain in the background. Direct communication is valued and technology plays a routine role in our lives, doing data analytics and most of the ‘excel-based work’ for us. The creative part is our end to do

Energoefektivitāte
I want to think in the future not only about vision, but as much as possible to fulfil it and how it will affect people of all layers, not only the rich. Thinking of the CO2 and energy sectors does not steer blindly in the same direction, but leaves people a choice. There are internal combustion engine cars available that are not oppressed and are not imposed and lobbied by electric cars, as the salvation of the planet. In the production of electricity, modern electric power reactors are being built that are capable of producing the necessary electricity efficiently.
