OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

Die digitale und Autome Zukunft
The wars of 2022-2025 have fortunately come to an end and the economic stability of all countries affected has increased again. We are feeling the effects of digitalization and artificial intelligence everywhere. Proper medical treatment is only available in urgent cases, everything else is carried out via webcam, food deliveries are no longer delivered by people but by drones. A cab ride is autonomous without a driver. Everything is paid for with a digital currency - there is very little cash left, as cash deposits and withdrawals incur a very high fee at the bank.

How i imagine it
In my future i see women having more rights, i see abortion being legal in all countries in EU. I see there’s no descrimination regarding genders. I see more women on high positions on jobs, i se equality of both genders. I wosh for there to be peace and no (or less) war. I also see people going to school, every child have a chance to go to school and get the education they want, i see more opportunities for young (and old) people to go to college and other higher schools.

Zukunftshorror
It's very difficult for me. I'm 65 now, then 80, and I'll probably have to live in a home because of my disability. I'll be looked after, fed, washed and played with by robots. My children will live in other cities and visit me in self-driving cars. We will mainly eat a meatless diet of insects, worms, larvae, etc. There will be small nuclear reactors everywhere. Houses will be built underground because of the heat or cold. There will still be wars because of raw materials

Življenje leta 2000.
I want us to live in peace, no wars. I want children to grow up without tick-tocks and other social networks. I want those responsible for the current situation regarding finances and everything bad in Slovenia to finally be fairly held to account by the competent authorities. I want every family to have a fresh piece of bread on the table every day, and not for some to live day in, day out, despite working 12 hours a day.
