Unity, I would like to see Europe going back to what it was originally formed for. A unified approach that is for the good of all members not just the larger countries. Europe needs to become more together on the large issues like defence, energy, climate change and migration. We should have a common military strategy to DEFEND Europe, a common shared energy network and a common standard to migration. That should probably be a points based type system and also we need a quicker turn around on assessment of applicants. Also we should look to welcome the UK back to Europe

In 2040, AI is really artificial intelligence and no longer a powerful augmented statistic. Almost all jobs and workers are replaced by machines. Citizens receive all, or almost all, a subsistence income with which they can buy food or invest in crypto currencies to try to increase their income. This activity has a strong risk of manipulation but governments have managed to agree on a single AI system that avoids fraud and the possibility that the wealth generated ends up in the hands of a few. Finally, the end of wage labor leaves room for the creativity that has allowed the planet to reverse the course on the climate clisis.

From the dark times of 2020/21/22/23 and 24 we are finally out! Now we are in 2040, I have 6 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren almost all graduates and wonderfully employed with respectable salaries! Russia has joined the EU and is supporting the whole European continent with its raw materials! The majority of immigrants returned to their countries after having acquired various professional skills in European countries. Africa in general is developing steadily and productively. For about ten years now, we have finally had serious, well-prepared and above all human politicians in government who know how to interpret the true mission of those who must govern and manage the well-being of their people! Who would have thought that we would come out of the tunnel of wars and nefarious globalization in so few years? My old age looks serene!!

The world would be at peace and that the richer countries would help poverty in the poorer regions.Also I imagine Ai will play a very big part of life in 2040.No more diesel or petrol cars are to be produced. Very warm summers with many people dying and strong winter storms.Hopefully there is a cure for Cancer.Smoking to be banned in most countries.Respevt for each others religious views would be tolerates.
