I imagine a world full of incredible innovations, technological advances and a deep respect for the environment. We will live in interconnected cities and where AI will make our lives more comfortable and efficient. The cars will be electric and autonomous, they will dominate the roads reducing pollution and increasing safety. The offices of our works have been transformed into occasional spaces since teleworking and flexible schedules are the norm. Thanks to advances in genetics and biotechnology, medical treatments are more personalized and more effective.

I am already retired and luckily for ages there is no reason to complain about health so far. How long this health condition could last is impossible to predict. But seeing how many people of my age (including younger and older people) are struggling with access to necessary medical care, as well as with physiotherapy procedures that would help delay the emergence of more serious health problems and increase feelings of well-being. It is therefore necessary to improve access to medical care. Given what is happening in society, it seems utopian. It would also be necessary for the elderly to be able to move more easily to care homes that provide decent care. Surely assisted suicide should be legalized, for which hundreds (if not more) of hopelessly ill people would be grateful. Ultimately, the whole society would benefit.

I don't have a good feeling for the future that will look bleak. People will be more unhappy because of the technology. A robot will determine our lives, Ai will only cause disadvantages compared to the happiness of the people. There will be little or no communication. The robot will control our way of life. Nature is polluted by way of more and it becomes practically unviable. Floods will plague us and what are people doing to improve it?

The canals of Amsterdam reflected the floating gardens that hung above the streets, fed by smart irrigation systems that cleverly reused rainwater. Cyclists silently drifted by on self-charging e-bikes, while autonomous vehicles silently delivered their passengers. The years between 2025 and 2050 were marked by immense transitions and sociological changes: the climate crisis had led to large-scale renewable energy projects, and artificial intelligence had completely changed the way people worked. Universal Basic Income had put an end to extreme poverty, and most people spent their time on creativity, research and collaboration with confidence. The fears of 2025 had proven largely unfounded. The technology had not replaced man, but instead put in their power to focus on what has real value; each other.
