Technology and nature

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I am in 2040. I see vehicles on the road driving autonomously. Traffic is no longer noisy because all vehicles are electric. The living is quiet, the air is clean. Around me are modern-looking buildings, a robot delivery driver passes me, a robot waiter invites me into a café. We humans have made life as easy as possible for ourselves. Around me are modern, tall buildings, the product of new ways of building with huge 3D printers. I head home, typing in my grocery order on the way. 5 minutes later, I hear a drone buzzing with a bag, which it deposits on the windowsill. I put on my VR goggles, and "go" to work.

My vision of the European Union is a Union of tolerance and understanding, where people can actively listen to each other, regardless of age, gender, race, nationality or other factors. In this EU, from a young age, at all levels of education, children will be guided not to memorise and pressure on performance as human stands, but will be more encouraged to use different sources of information, including digital books, but to learn through intergenerational sharing of knowledge and experience between children, parents, grandparents and educational institutions : Primary schools, secondary schools, colleges, universities, leisure centers, social services facilities and so on. Thanks to the automation of many processes, people will not be so pushed into performances, but they will have more time to care for each other if, for example, someone gets sick or finds themselves in a difficult life situation. I dream, also, of a future where healthy competition among people in school collectives, at work, but also among people in personal life will remain, but will be limited by ethical principles of decency, kindness and emotional intelligence. The teacher will no longer be the owner of the truth, he will lead his students to critical thinking using various tools and technologies. I would like society to be less polarised in 20 years, to focus on what unites us, not what divides us. I dream of a modern and progressive world that will be more accepting and where people will be people again.
