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

Se på mig
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.

Ma maison du futur
Always very connected. A detached house that is enough for itself. Photovoltaic panel, water recycling. Have warm in winter and cool in summer. Naturally I have a greenhouse that allows me to eat fruits and vegetables that I produce myself. There will also be cameras for my safety. I would very much like to see other propulsion modes for my vehicle develop, with solar panels to charge my car.

Czy to bajka, czy nie bajka?
A better future... We drive electric cars, and electricity to them is provided by wind and nuclear power plants. Non-organic plastic replaced glass, in a garbage incineration plant with efficient filters made waste pits finally unnecessary. The air in Polish cities is suitable for breathing even in winter, and in summer we are not afraid of drought and lack of water. And instead of arming, we spend money on health protection and equal opportunities for children and adolescents. All this may be possible, but I'll put it between the fairy tales...

Den gröna framtiden
I would like to see a future where there has been a major change for the benefit of the environment and the future of the planet. Solar, wind and hydropower have replaced fossil energy sources. Buildings, houses, etc. are equipped to be self-sufficient both in terms of energy and, for example, basic raw materials such as potatoes and the like. Public transport has switched entirely to electric vehicles and there are incredible high-speed trains that can compete with flights between major cities.
