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

People in government must prove that they have a basic knowledge of their position and are not appointed according to party affiliation. Laws that are passed must also be applied and not become ineffective with thousands of exceptions. As far as transport is concerned, it would be good if there were still a certain individual share, but for the most part via a well-developed public network that also takes into account all so-called marginalized groups (the elderly, the disabled, the financially disadvantaged).

Dette vil næppe være min fremtid, men ...
For anything to get better, we have to start small. That means everything starts with yourself, with taking responsibility for your life, living a decent, responsible and considerate life in all respects. If this happens, it will also mean that the people elected to political responsibility will be able to fulfill their duties for the benefit of all people and all aspects of society. And there is nowhere, in my opinion, where change and improvement is more needed than in this area if democracy is to survive

Realistische Dystopie
In 2050, the earth will not be a better place than it is today. People will still be fighting senseless wars and hatred will not have been overcome in either the real or the virtual world. Resources will become scarcer in some areas, but intensive research has found ways to largely compensate for this. The division of the world has also changed. Countries that used to play a leading role in the economy and politics have, in some cases, become insignificant players on the brink of regression from industrialized to emerging economies as a result of bad decisions by egomaniacal politicians. Neither their energy supply nor the shortage of skilled workers can be brought under control. Religious beliefs will play a greater role and minorities will often dictate to majorities how they should behave. Woke-ness will largely eradicate feminism, so that everything women have fought hard for for decades will dissolve into nothing. We are abolishing ourselves, human dignity, human rights and democracy because we make everything equally bad and insignificant out of a misunderstood understanding of tolerance. Only the stupidity of humans will not die out, but will become even greater, while the AI secretly laughs and is happy not to be homo "sapiens".

I would like it to be easier to build and convert houses. That young families are given more support so that they can have a secure home. I also hope that my children are better supported by the state in their own child planning and that they feel financially secure during their parental leave
