Worse for most, good for few

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

As world hasn't gotten into an agreement about changes regarding the climate change the world has gotten much warmer. Population has either started shrinking in areas that are no longer easily habitable or started moving towards better areas which are now getting crowded.
This of course affects health and wellbeing of the population.
Technology/science rushes forwards with the possibility to live off planet sooner rather than later it seems that the option is only for the most wealthy. It is true that technological breakthroughs could also make lives easier and better but at what cost? There are always those who'd profit which in turn makes benefiting from said progress expensive for everyone. Working definitely might change with automatic/remote controlled robots or such. But still the lower classes would'nt have that luxory.

Notes about the quiestionaire. The given/estimated 5 minutes is nowhere near enough time to collect thoughts/visions about possible future. Also there was no option to decline after clicking the link in email as there usually is.

We used to go to school, but now it's unthinkable because we are home-schooled. Our teacher is artificial intelligence. We don't know cars anymore, now we go by air and we can travel 30km in 10 minutes. Slow trains at 150km/h are no more, now we drive at a minimum of 300km/h. There are no longer live employees in petrol stations and local restaurants, there are robots and self-service checkouts. There is a lack of emotional intelligence. People are emotionless everyone is in a hurry.. life used to be nicer, and children used to play outside now I don't see any anymore.

Better than expected
Oh in 2040, will I still be on this planet ... hopefully. AI will have made further and further inroads. The restless and hectic world of big politics will hopefully have calmed down. And very importantly, there is peace on this earth, the environmental problems are in the process of being solved. Naive as I am, I also believe that the migration issue has been resolved. Politics as a whole has accepted all the challenges and is telling people the truth. Bureaucracy has been massively reduced!!!! I will be able to live on my pension. but the most important thing: POPULISM IS DEAD AND THERE IS PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is a time when everyone has let go of their anger. Where everyone has understood that closing borders and piling up wealth is bad. We have peace and prosperity by helping each other. No one is allowed to escape their obligations to the population, to avoid paying taxes by fleeing to another country. A Europe where we can look forward with hope and believe in better times!

My first thought is that I imagine life for my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren is a place where life is lived sensibly with peace in the world, 😁 a place where nature is paramount, where the climate crisis is overcome, where artificial intelligence is fully implemented and there is guaranteed to be "invented a new amazing intelligence" that advances the entire world situation.
