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?

Airport of future
In 2040 there will be airports with train like qualities to them. Where there will be no need to queue for hours in security lines or arrive set times before flights. This will be done through automated scanners that detect instantly whether the correct protocol has been followed

Manas laimīgās vecumdienas.
The world is at peace. All bloody conflicts are over. People care about preserving the planet's ecosystem. We are producing less and less useless products. We are learning how to use resources. Wisely and usefully. We sort our waste carefully and recycle most of it. We use mostly energy resources. We use sustainable methods_ hydro, solar, wind. We also prioritise our own health while fighting for a healthy environment. I spend a lot of time by the sea in the summer, going for long walks and skiing in the winter through the snow-covered forest. My grandchildren are grown up and do not require much care. So I feel content to enjoy a happy old age. I devote a lot of time to my hobbies - gardening and travelling. The flowers in my garden are blooming and the tomatoes are coming up. I travel not too far, but slowly, enjoying the beautiful landscapes of European countries. The most important thing is to take care of your health and the health of your loved ones.The authorities have realised this and health care is becoming more and more accessible and not fantastically expensive.

Amélioration des qualités de vie
Quality of life has improved. Noise has disappeared from built-up areas thanks to electric vehicles, with much less pollution and more fluidity. People are more courteous and less touchy thanks to these improvements. Safety has improved, as penalties are more repressive. All breaches of the rules of etiquette and good citizenship are corrected in re-education centers.

alles wird einfacher
I can use my mobile device to communicate, pay, identify myself, get things done using AI and get my life organized. I only have to concentrate on life itself - work, leisure, family, friends, pleasure, etc. Languages are no longer an obstacle. Languages are no longer an obstacle. Data protection has become superfluous, as a lot of data is simply known and available in such quantities that it no longer requires individual protection. The device also fends off attacks and intrusions. Every person also has freely available assets.
