Ateities Vilnius

2040, 10 September. Europe has become the most advanced climate neutrality region in the world. Cities have completely abandoned fossil fuels, and each building has its own energy production system based on solar, wind and kinetic energy.

Evelina, now an experienced scientist, works in a global climate innovation lab that develops AI-powered air purification mechanisms. The streets are green, overflowing with vertical gardens, and the vehicles - without any pollution. Waste of water and food has become a thing of the past, as bioengineering has developed the most effective processing methods.

Society has also changed - the working week has been reduced to four days, as robotisation and AI have allowed people more time for creativity and personal development. The education system has introduced holistic teaching, where everyone can learn at their own pace, and virtual universities connect people from all over the world.

Evelina looks at the centre of Vilnius, where people communicate in the squares, musicians play, and technology serves not as a separation, but as a tool of unity. "This is what the future should have been like," she thinks, as she watches the sun set over the green horizons of the city.

Des nouveaux isolants
In 2040, I'd like to see housing and dwellings upgraded to cope with climate change. To do this, we'd have to invent (if we haven't already done so) special exterior insulation that would protect against both heat and cold. Living conditions would really improve, and everyone would be able to live better and cope with extreme temperatures.

De la solidarité sociale à l'intelligence par l'investissement et le travail
The French, our politicians and European partner states are trying to correct the problems they have created by multiplying standards and administrative constraints, allowing distorted competitive trade and uncontrolled immigration. In 2040, competition is free and undistorted, in the sense that our companies are protected from European and international competition. Our Western values are defended tooth and nail. Priority urban neighborhoods no longer exist, because we've broken the all-social business. Local employment is preserved, and the social and political climate is calmer. Society is egalitarian because it is based on investment and work, not social debt.

die Gesellschaft in 2040
I would hope that the world is freed from war and that society grows together and is not so divided into individuals whose only goal is to hoard as much money as possible. Everyone should have the opportunity of a future-proof education. Good healthcare is appropriate for all people and not just for the wealthy.

Mein Optimismus das Positive in jedem Menschen in Verbindung mit KI
The future, is there a future? The instability that is currently putting every togetherness, i.e. partnership, to the test in all areas of life has divided people in our small communities and throughout Europe into two classes of people. I would like to see more togetherness and compromise in the future, regardless of color and origin, whether highly educated or less well-off. I have had a difficult year, with immobility, long hospital stays, operations and a new start. My optimism doesn't let me despair, but with the help of medicine and AI, which will be a great help and influence my actions, I will be able to cope for a few more years. A few years ago, I was still working on construction sites all over Austria and Germany with people of all races and backgrounds, and now I'm a pensioner. A life with respect for the Faroe Islands on YOU and you. Vacationing at the lake where people are already supported by small robots in the catering and service sectors. In medicine, nothing works without robots and AI and in the years to come, autonomy will also find its way into transportation in order to protect the environment and the climate. To be able to continue to experience this, we need a great sense of togetherness.
