2040 could be a very different world from today, depending on how we advance in technology, society and the environment.

1. Technology and Daily Life
• Advanced AI: AI assistants will be almost like humans in their ability to understand and anticipate our needs.
• Virtual and Augmented Reality: Work, education and entertainment will be highly immersive.
• Personalized Medicine: Genetic editing and nanotechnology could cure many diseases.
• Automation and Robots: Many work tasks will be automated, with humans focusing on creativity and innovation.

2. Society and Economics
• Hybrid Work or Less Work: Perhaps we work fewer hours thanks to automation, with more time for leisure and personal development.
• Universal Basic Income: If automation replaces many jobs, some countries could implement a basic income for everyone.
• Smart Cities: Connected infrastructure, autonomous transport and clean energy dominating the urban landscape.

3. Environment and Energy
• Climate change: If we act well, we could have a world with clean energy and less pollution. If not, we could be dealing with more frequent weather disasters.
• Space Colonization: Perhaps there are bases on the Moon and Mars, with space exploration at its best.
• Sustainable food: Vertical crops, laboratory-grown meat and sustainable alternatives will be normal.

It all depends on how we make decisions in the coming years, as I don't see myself able to predict something that many variables influence.

A wonderful world

I would like a world where origins and skin colour are no longer problems. Where everyone can achieve great studies and do whatever job they would like to do. A world where children and women feel safe. Where religion is no longer a cause of war. A world where people no longer fight for authority, nor glory. A world where we are all aware of the environmental situation.

Finalmente un Europa unita

As we talk nowadays about the problems in Europe,the lack of unity common strategies and diminishing importance in the world,I hope that in 2040 we will finally find a union,where there are no longer individual states,but we will have a continent modeled after the United States,where we will have a single parliament,and we will all vote together to elect it.We will all have the same laws,fewer politicians,and a more streamlined and efficient system,where the best politicians from each country can run for office. In this way,we will be able to compete with world powers and emerging powers. Today it seems difficult to achieve,but I believe it is the only way we can look to the future with hope. Of course,I hope that this will happen long before 2040,and that in those years we will remember the difficulties of today,which made us unite and complete the European project.

Jutro 2040

The sun was just rising over Paris, or the castle had been awake for several Saturdays. People were quietly shaking floating capsules, and pedestrian zones were covered with intelligent pavements that bought energy from the stride of the proles. It was the 10th of March 2040, and Europe had become a continent of sustainability and technological harmony. I woke up in my home in Amsterdam, where the walls were changing the struggle for my position. Jutarnju kavu pripremila mi je kućna AI asistentica Mira, koja je već znala da chcesz dupli espresso. At the business, in the renewable energy laboratory, we were working on a new solar power system that could provide security for even the smallest rural communities.I travelled to Brussels for the European Summit on the Hyperloop superfast train. Since fossil-fuel aircraft have been banned, such journeys have become faster, cleaner and more affordable. The meeting was devoted to the new law on the rights of humanoid robots - an issue that was as important as people's rights.While I was in the kitchen in the evening, I looked at the hologram messages. The front page celebrated a new development: Europe has become the first continent with a plunging circular economy, where nothing is lost but everything is regained. I thought: maybe the future is not a dystopia after all, but a world that we have built together - a world where science, ecology and humanity go hand in hand.
