Perception/conscience

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

December 31, 2040: After several years of political and economic violence in 2025-2027. Little by little, nations have understood that they must live together, balancing the planet's resources. The consciousness of each individual has on the whole developed, gradually leading to a better understanding of one another. Strangely enough, this collective awareness seems to favor the birth of new ideas. Researchers seem to be able to concretize the use and role of light and sound in our interactions with each other and with the globality of our environments. These discoveries have reduced the fascination and power of the AI system, putting it back in its place as a simple development tool; vocabularies are changing, and the means of communication transformed by the use of light matter and sound waves are harmonizing with the development of other species. If I had written this in 2025, I would have been considered an unrealistic utopian. Yet our current preoccupations, awareness that we still have to discover where we are and what our "usefulness" is in this galactic universe. Faith and belief remain strong, all the more so as our researchers are projecting new fundamental discoveries in 2050. In particular, certain filaments discovered during our olfactory explorations have been identified as beings or doorways?

Changement de fonction du parlement européen
By 2040, Europe would need to establish secure borders to prevent the massive arrival of migrants, who are very costly for the countries they settle in. We also need to review and harmonize agricultural standards across Europe, since each country has different standards. We also need to standardize European VAT, and above all let each country's government run its own country, rather than Europe, which favors certain countries.

Blick in die Zukunft
In 2040, I wake up in my smart apartment, which automatically adapts to my needs. The view out of the window shows a green, clean city where cars only drive electrically and autonomously. Thanks to advanced technology, the air quality is excellent and the cities are dotted with green oases. I have breakfast in a café that offers sustainable products from local, vertical farms. Work is all about creative collaboration - artificial intelligence helps to solve complex tasks, but humans remain the creative minds. Education has been revolutionized: Everyone has access to personalized learning methods and can learn new skills at their own pace. In my free time, I use virtual worlds to experience new cultures or realize old dreams. Society has recognized that prosperity is not only material, but also lies above all in health, education and sustainability.

Révision des valeurs, valorisation des valeurs humaines
The medical-social professions are not remunerated at a level commensurate with their contribution to society. In the future, all professions that bring a real benefit to people and society will be valued and paid much more than those that only have a market value. A footballer, especially a professional one, an actor, an influencer, a TV presenter etc. will earn a decent living, but much less than an educator, a nurse, a doctor, a home help. Mutual aid, solidarity, compassion and empathy will be taught from an early age to ensure that tomorrow's societies are harmonious, fair and equitable. Work will be more remunerative than capitalization. All forms of life will be respected and preserved as far as possible.

Gemeinsam für alle ist das Ziel.
People have finally managed to put aside their own selfishness and have realized that a society and a better world can only function together. Mobility is becoming public, free and reliably available to everyone. People have realized that no one has to live in abundance and that no one needs to live in poverty. Every life is secured in a humane way and everyone can live their lives as they wish without having to fear for their existence. The rich 1% have realized that it makes no sense to hoard money and voluntarily make it available to society. No one is disadvantaged because of the attributes of their birth.
