Self-driving cars are a difficult challenge to create, but autonomous long-haul trucks could arrive sooner. On the positive side, they'll improve safety and shipping speeds, help reduce worker shortages, and boost supply chain sustainability. Unfortunately, there will also be regulatory complications, job losses, and safety challenges as self-driving AI develops.

I owned a Raspberry Pi long ago and it was just sitting in my tech wash box. After watching a Youtube session of creative Raspberry applications, with envy , I decided to try something by myself. The first obvious idea to me was a home security system to inspect your house while you are away.

The Internet of Things (IoT) can significantly enhance energy efficiency in buildings. By integrating smart sensors and devices, data can be collected and analyzed in real-time to optimize energy use, reducing costs and environmental impact. Smart thermostats, automated lighting, and predictive maintenance are key applications of IoT in promoting energy efficiency.

In the future, there is a digital social contract, and governments are the ones who have to play by the rules. While today 3 people own more money than 3 billion people, while 1 billion are starving, the future will see this wealth inequality solved by more equalized ownership of internet hardware. The future power lies in digital self-sovereignty.

The future is one where the agora meets the blockchain, and democracy gets a contemporary makeover. It's not a revolution with blaring trumpets; it's the quiet evolution of governance. The vision begins by reviving the spirit of Athenian direct democracy in a digital agora. AI algorithms working behind the scenes offer councils a helping hand in decision-making.

The essence of futurism has dwindled, giving way to a sea of trend-driven imitators. The piece reflects on the bygone era of unbridled imagination in futurism and the current state of the profession, where influencers dominate with superficial predictions. It calls for a return to true futurism, blending imaginative visions with methodologies like Science Fiction Prototyping, challenging the status quo and rekindling the power to shape a diverse range of futures.
