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.

Světlá budoucnost
I can imagine that there will be great advances in medicine. There is a non-invasive cure for cancer, medicine is able to cure all disabled people with physical disabilities and visual impairments. Small chips will monitor our health and alert us when something goes wrong. At the same time, they will be able to provide treatment. Doctors will only deal with really urgent cases and those that advanced robotics and artificial intelligence cannot solve. There will be rocket development in this area, and AI will be a great help in diagnostics and treatment in the health field. Companies from all over the world will participate in its development. Everything in medicine will be much more advanced and effective. Wheelchairs will be able to walk again. Euthanasia is finally enacted in the Czech Republic, many people are waiting for it with hope. Even an animal has a right not to suffer when there is no hope of a cure, and hopefully in the future we will too. Eye transplants will be introduced so that even the blind can function normally in society and find regular work, because they do not get this opportunity.

Mental Health freedom
In 2040, I imagine a world where mental health is no longer a taboo subject, but rather an integral part of daily life. Over the past two decades, society has shifted from seeing mental health as a personal burden to recognizing it as a collective responsibility. Access to mental health care has become universal, and everyone—from children to the elderly—receives support as easily as they would for any physical ailment. Therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals are now embedded in schools, workplaces, and communities. Digital platforms have evolved into fully personalized care systems, offering real-time support with AI-driven tools that help people track their emotional well-being. There’s no more stigma attached to seeking help, and in fact, emotional wellness is seen as a key pillar of personal success, just as much as physical health. In this future, people of all backgrounds feel empowered to speak openly about their struggles, knowing that their mental health is valued and prioritized. The result is a more empathetic and resilient society, where people not only survive, but thrive emotionally. This world feels connected, supportive, and hopeful—no longer isolated by mental health challenges, but united in caring for each other’s minds as much as their bodies.

Ihmiskunnan täydelliseen tuhoon
There was an explosion in the beginning. The sound and the pressure wave were something I couldn't describe. We were sitting outside in the garden. We understood that the end of mankind had begun. Telephones, computers; Everybody's mute. The electricity didn't work either. There was no movement anywhere; No people, no cars, no animals, nothing. We heard something about the old radiator radio. Strange clicks, ticking: Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tue Tu Yeah, that's right. Who would save our souls? No one, no one.
