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?

2050, we now live in a society where AI is rampant, which is a great help to the super-rich and where the work3ned man has become the brunt of it. D3 unemployment is out of control worldwide. Everything now runs on electricity and hydrogen, except in the middle east, there they remain faithful to their petroleum. The working man is struggling enlrm to make ends meet worldwide, AI has taken all the workplaces and the super rich will have a private robot to do their household and other chores. There has been enormous progress in the medical world, even cancer will be curable but......also only for the rich of course. Violence and crime have risen to unprecedented levels because many people are hungry. We have also become overpopulated, which does not make things any easier, so much so that people are secretly hoping for a stronger outbreak of corona, which will kill at least 25% of the world's population. Of course, only working3 people and the unemployed because the rich are again privileged and inoculated with a wonder drug. In the end, tensions between rich and poor will rise so high that there will be riots everywhere, leading to civil wars and even a world war. People will shout and scream for a worldwide ban on AI

2040-beter of niet?
In 2040, 95% of the population will drive electric cars and, in addition, small cars will fly to work anywhere in the world. There will be no economic connection with the different continents because it will be every man for himself. This will give the home economy a serious boost and unemployment will be virtually non-existent. Refugees will invariably be refused entry - the borders will do extra checks. The military arsenal will be brought back up to standard and military service reintroduced because there will always be rulers who want to expand their borders. Europe will have to continue to arm itself against Russia and China but there will be a good agreement between the european countries There will be one single currency for all european countries and also the belaqstins laws, taxation systems will be aligned and equivalent. Whether people will be happier remains a question mark.

IL SOGNO DIVENUTO REALTÀ
In 2040, Europe is a vibrant, thriving, and interconnected continent like never before. I wake up in a green city where skyscrapers are wrapped in vertical gardens. Between 2025 and 2040, Europe has embraced sustainability, with cities producing all the energy they need from renewable sources. Transportation has radically changed. I hop on a super-fast train that takes me from Chieti to Berlin in less than an hour. During the journey, the landscapes flow by quickly, showing fields of wind turbines and solar panels powering local communities. My workday consists of monitoring smart sensor networks distributed throughout the city to optimize energy consumption and reduce waste. Artificial intelligence technologies are integrated into every aspect of daily life, making cities more efficient and improving the quality of life. In his free time, he visited a cultural center where Europe's rich cultural traditions are celebrated. In European cities, languages and cultures blend harmoniously, creating a more open and tolerant society. The European dream of 2040 has become a reality. I find myself on a continent that is not only technologically advanced, but also socially and environmentally conscious. A place where innovation and tradition coexist to create a prosperous future for all.

Musk must die!
2040, after a period of oppression and exploitation by the oligarchs of the Western world, hope is shining again among the honest and upstanding. The Musketeers, a nickname they received after they literally put an end to the greatest monster of the time, Elon Musk, using an old-fashioned bayonet to rip his heart to pieces, are the new Robin Hood of our time. One ruler after another was removed from the throne. With the death of only a few power-hungry people, the turnaround was initiated. The Tech giants were forced to destroy their software and erase codes once and for all. Young people in particular were the first to react to the lack of the addictive social media and marketing they had been thrown to death with from childhood. They were reconnecting physically, having genuine feelings, touching each other and feeling tingles all over your body for the first time. The proverb butterflies in your stomach was finally recognized.
