Creative production

Operational by 2040. The evolution of VR, AR and 4D printing technologies and the significant reduction in their costs are paving the way for the creation of new generation ecocrafts. The creative industry at home is flourishing. Millions of projects to create objects – from customised and customised everyday equipment to immersive works of art – are ongoing in the homes of individuals or groups of people. The objects produced are sold through new-generation marketplaces, while the consumer can intervene in their production and configure them even during the creation phase, through a process of dynamic interaction with the product and the manufacturer’s digital assistant: an AI algorithm capable of assessing and managing new requests and learning alone about the specificities of potential buyers. These projects generate new income, while low production costs allow more people to access the production process. At the same time, the fact that production is spread across many different locations allows the supply of products and services within a very short radius from the consumer’s home, which reduces the cost and environmental footprint of transport. At the same time, new forms of art are being created, with works that interact with the viewer and are transformed, and a new code of ethics is being established to protect users of immersive environments from the possibility of universal immersion in virtual worlds.

Hand in Hand
n 2040, I would like to see a world in which technology and humanity go hand in hand to improve life for everyone. It would be particularly important that artificial intelligence and automation not only increase prosperity, but also reduce social inequality. AI will be used to make education, healthcare and job opportunities more efficient and accessible so that no one is left behind. In this future, work is no longer only tied to physical presence - flexible working models make it possible to better combine life and work. At the same time, society has shifted its focus to mental health. There is a strong culture of mindfulness and compassion, both at work and at home. Stigmatization of mental illness is a thing of the past, and everyone has access to the resources they need. Climate change has been largely halted by innovative technologies and sustainable lifestyles. Renewable energy has become the norm and cities are green and liveable. In this future, the world is a place of peace, justice and mutual respect - for the planet and for all people.

The future is maddening today.
I hope the future in the world had been eliminated racism, xenophobia and corruption. Less poverty. I believe more opportunities to people working less time and be more productive and had time to spend with family. I imagine one world also with less nature destruction.

In 2040, we live in peace and balance. We work, but only to pass the time. Everyone is happy, life is pleasant. There is no evil, people live in peace. No one wants to oppress anyone. Children can play in the streets in peace. They don't have to be afraid of getting hurt. The police do their job. So people can live in peace. It's important that it's not just the motorists who are being bullied. They could investigate and put their energy into catching criminals. Because right now they are not really "serving and protecting" (at least not the citizens).

i hope that I would like it
In 2040, I would love to see a future where sustainability is a top priority. Imagine a world where renewable energy sources like solar and wind power are the norm, where recycling and reducing waste are ingrained in everyday life, and where eco-friendly practices are widespread. I envision cities with green spaces, clean air, and efficient public transportation systems. People would be more conscious of their environmental impact, leading to a healthier planet for future generations. It would be amazing to see innovations in technology that promote sustainability and protect our environment.
