Look back in Nostalgia

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

So as I look back over the last 20 years I see how AI has dramatically changed how we live. There is no never a time when we can't just say I wonder what that question means. Instantly we get the answer. And then there are all the robots doing our jobs, whilst some of them were mundane and humans either did not like doing or in some cases refused to it, alas it has made us lazier. And then communication has now become so electronic driven that we now interface via screens. Ah remember the good old days when we met in person, had a coffee, and a chat and shared our emotions freely, sometimes ending out meeting with a physical handshake or even a hug...... now its all emojis and virtual high fives. To think that in my lifetime, computers were the size of rooms, phones were in boxes on the side of the roads or if you were lucky to own one, attached to the wall. Remember how we messaged people by letter and waiting patiently sometimes for weeks for a reply and did not get angry when we did not get a response instantly. But now life is better or at least that is what they say, isn't that right Alexa or are you Siri

the future is grandchildren
in 2040 I will be 72 and my children 32 and 31 - I hope I have grandchildren and that they live near. I hope my kids are settled workign and have decent places to live. air and watr are clean. i hope that the weather has settled and the enviroment stabalised - but I doudt it and I think my children will be facing more extreme weather. AI will impact their jobs but not to the extent the pessimists worry. I will be retired - but only just as I enjoy work, i will have a rich cultureal and social life and wont be worrying about caring for othes (those years are behind me). I might need to help my kids finaically just as my parents helped me - but they do ok.

When you sit in a café in the sun, people talk. The cell phones are gone. You look into each other's eyes and take an interest in each other. Respects differences, sexuality, skin tones and attitudes. They no longer judge each other. There is peace and quiet in the world. No one feels superior to anyone else. The focus is on the contact, interaction and respect between people. There is peace and no stress.
