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?

As intermitências do digital
It's a summer's day and Europe is more advanced than ever. Cars look nothing like the cars of just a few years ago. They drive themselves, on autopilot! The boundaries between the real and the digital are very blurred and artificial intelligence has taken over everyday life throughout Europe. Robots are in almost every home and can have a conversation with humans, which is mitigating the feeling of loneliness that, ironically, is very much a result of mass digitization.

The year 2040, humanity has reached an unprecedented level of development. Medicine has advanced so far that virtually all diseases have been eradicated. Life expectancy has increased and the quality of life is excellent for everyone. Personalized medicine is the norm. Each individual has a unique health plan based on their genetics, lifestyle and specific needs. Diagnoses are instantaneous thanks to nanorobots that circulate through the body, constantly monitoring health and repairing any damage at the cellular level before it becomes a problem. Hospitals have evolved into wellness centers where people go to improve their health, not just to treat disease. Regenerative medicine has allowed damaged organs and tissues to regenerate, eliminating the need for transplants. Gene therapies have eliminated hereditary diseases, and vaccines have eradicated viruses and bacteria. In addition, humanity has achieved a perfect balance with the environment. Energy is clean and abundant, thanks to advances in solar, wind and nuclear fusion power. Pollution is a thing of the past and cities are full of green spaces and clean air. Water sources are completely purified and plant and animal species have recovered. People live in harmony, enjoying long and healthy lives. Technology has enabled everyone to have access to education and work, which has eliminated poverty and inequality. International cooperation has led to a peaceful world, where everyone works together for the common good. In this society, human beings are aware of the importance of caring for their health and the environment. Happiness is a constant state, and every day is full of opportunities to learn, grow and enjoy life. This is what the world looks like in 2040: a place where health is completely under control, pollution has disappeared and humanity lives in happiness and harmony.
