A few years from now I hope that all of our lives will be better, not so much for us as for our children. I hope and pray that crime will be eliminated, that there will be no wars, that there will be no hunger, that everything will be carefree and happy. Sure artificial intelligence will have gone for good in our lives but I hope all this is for good and helps people evolve and not set them back.

In order to think about the future we need to clarify the past. So far, governance has been based on Myths: about climate, electric cars, Liberty, Equality, Fraternity and what not. Well none of those myths worked... That's in the past now. In 2050 we will once again return to the basic maxim of the ancients: Truth, Justice, Liberty. In specifics, this maxim should mean: 1. Very little state involvement in the redistribution of wealth: 2. Low taxes or even no taxation; 3. No total control over citizens; 4. Governance through referendums.

Imagine the year 2040. You wake up and your personal AI assistant has already planned your day to be as efficient and enjoyable as possible. As you enjoy your breakfast (customized to your needs of the moment), it tells you the highlights of the day without overwhelming you with unnecessary information. At work? For many, this no longer means boring hours in front of a computer - AI has taken over routine tasks, and people are focusing on creativity, innovation and communication. In hospitals, AI is diagnosing illnesses before symptoms appear, saving lives. In transportation - autonomous vehicles have made road accidents a rarity. Sounds like utopia, right? But... at what cost? Jobs have changed dramatically - some occupations have simply disappeared. Social life is also different - people rely more and more on virtual meetings, and physical contacts are decreasing. Artificial intelligence knows us better than we know ourselves, which is convenient but also a little startling. And yet - if we can find the balance between the convenience of technology and the preservation of the human condition, 2040 could be a time when we live better, healthier and with more free time. The question is: will we use AI to make the world a better place, or will we let it make us passive bystanders? The choice is ours.

The European Union has broken up and the countries have returned to their identity, rather than transposing European directives. Communities are free, but they are also connected. Nature has rebelled with the help of humans. Technology is being unlearned, but robots are replacing them in hard labour, not in drudgery
