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?

The planet is nice and green again without all those natural disasters that cause so much suffering. There are leaders who cooperate with each other instead of opposing each other and going to war. People read with each other and set each other free. In addition, we are advancing in technology: cars can drive independently and we are becoming more flexible in our work so that traffic jams are a thing of the past and vacations all at once are no longer necessary. I also hope that children in the Netherlands will become more equal, all receive equal education and equal opportunities.

Unity and strength
Unity, I would like to see Europe going back to what it was originally formed for. A unified approach that is for the good of all members not just the larger countries. Europe needs to become more together on the large issues like defence, energy, climate change and migration. We should have a common military strategy to DEFEND Europe, a common shared energy network and a common standard to migration. That should probably be a points based type system and also we need a quicker turn around on assessment of applicants. Also we should look to welcome the UK back to Europe

L'AI e la fine del lavoro salariato
In 2040, AI is really artificial intelligence and no longer a powerful augmented statistic. Almost all jobs and workers are replaced by machines. Citizens receive all, or almost all, a subsistence income with which they can buy food or invest in crypto currencies to try to increase their income. This activity has a strong risk of manipulation but governments have managed to agree on a single AI system that avoids fraud and the possibility that the wealth generated ends up in the hands of a few. Finally, the end of wage labor leaves room for the creativity that has allowed the planet to reverse the course on the climate clisis.

La luce dopo il tunnel
From the dark times of 2020/21/22/23 and 24 we are finally out! Now we are in 2040, I have 6 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren almost all graduates and wonderfully employed with respectable salaries! Russia has joined the EU and is supporting the whole European continent with its raw materials! The majority of immigrants returned to their countries after having acquired various professional skills in European countries. Africa in general is developing steadily and productively. For about ten years now, we have finally had serious, well-prepared and above all human politicians in government who know how to interpret the true mission of those who must govern and manage the well-being of their people! Who would have thought that we would come out of the tunnel of wars and nefarious globalization in so few years? My old age looks serene!!
