By 2040, the world could be vastly different, shaped by technological, environmental, and societal changes. Here are some possibilities: 1. Technology: Artificial Intelligence (AI) will likely play a dominant role, with AI systems embedded in daily life for everything from transportation (autonomous vehicles) to healthcare (AI-driven diagnostics). Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) could be integrated into work and entertainment, offering immersive experiences that blend digital and physical realities. Quantum computing could revolutionize fields like cryptography and complex problem-solving, vastly enhancing technological capabilities.

I'd like there to be no more wars and no more killing in 2049. People should be more concerned about the planet and how to protect it and take care of it, the same for animals which are an important part of our population. Humans should not put themselves at the top of the food chain and every individual should learn to live and respect their surroundings and not just think about themselves, their own benefit or money.

Taxes are lower, boosting economic growth, more people have found jobs and wages have risen, improving living standards. Policy has become more people-centred, with more support for younger families, who now receive better help with housing, credit, education and healthcare. Urban communities are more connected and resilient, with more green spaces and more efficient public transport. Technology would enable better health services and longer lives, while reducing the gap between rich and poor. Dinners would fall, or wages would be so much higher, from what everyone can afford to live on. Slovenia would become a little better known in the world and more people would cooperate with foreign countries on business.

In Europe, significant changes will take place from 2025 onwards. I think that the single country that is to be called the European Union is about to fall apart and many countries will have to leave the Union. After all, I live in a small country and, in terms of area and the number of inhabitants, I do not think that it will see significant changes. I am looking forward to the changes in other places. Ukraine will have to shrink and accept all the conditions that Russia will dictate to it, and Germany and other countries in which SAD military bases are located will have to stand up and demand that they be abolished, because it is unnatural for another military power to wage war in another country if it does not want to.In the Balkans, it is to be hoped that the artificial state of Kosovo will not happen, and most countries of the world will accept that Bosnia and Herzegovina will grow because it is not a natural creation, but a miniature copy of the former Yugoslavia, and we know how it has grown. I also think that the SAD will have less impact on the gatherings in Europe, because it will be in the midst of other problems. When I imagine a better future, and I think that this is what the majority of Europe's citizens want, I have to think that this can hardly happen, because most foreign countries do not have to accept that there are no more 18 and 19 years when they can do what they want. So I think that real peace will never come...it is enough to look at the history of the people's generation...unfortunately this is reality
