We have already talked about it several times: the advent of artificial intelligence will end up revolutionizing every aspect of our lives. From shopping to feelings, from education to travel, the possibilities are endless. But what will all this mean for the way we live, work and play? Here are some scenarios that show some possible applications.
The supermarket of 2040: assistant robots and resourceful trolleys
Just enough time to enter, e a robot smiling welcomes Sandro, offering to help him with the shopping. Sandra uses her smartphone or her AR glasses to connect to the robot: once recognized, the machine recognizes it and provides it with a personalized shopping list based on its previous purchases. The robot then delivers an autonomous trolley equipped with advanced sensors, cameras and artificial intelligence algorithms.
While Sandro moves through the shelves, the trolley follows him autonomously and suggests complementary products based on his preferences. THE sensors of the cart detect the items, making sure you don't forget anything on your list and updated the amount in real time. Even the shelves "move": many are motorized and change the configuration of the supermarket on the occasion of presentations, offers or small events.
Once the shopping is finished, Sandro pays just showing the face: the system identifies him and debits the amount due from his account automatically. Finally, the trolley returns autonomously to its charging station, ready to assist the next customer.
Dating car
In 2040, Angela decides to try a new speed dating service that's a little out of the ordinary: an autonomous vehicle arrives to pick her up to take her to her destination.
Once inside the car, an AI-powered virtual assistant welcomes her and explains the rules and format of the event. The car then takes her on a first date, to a restaurant booked exclusively for the occasion. Arrived at the restaurant, the car it parks itself and the virtual assistant gives Angela an overview of the first date. Angela has a great evening getting to know a possible partner (who used the same service and arrived in a similar autonomous vehicle) and enjoying a great dinner.
At the end of dinner, the two decide whether to end or continue the evening: in the first case, their respective autonomous vehicles will take them each back to their home. The AI assistant on board will ask them for feedback on the appointment, so as to improve the service, then it will connect with thepersonal AI assistant by Angela to warn her about upcoming amorous appointments.
In the second case, a single vehicle will take them together to the next destination: a welcome drink will allow them to continue their amiable flirtation even in the car, during the journey. And if they are roses, they will bloom.
Back to school in 2040
Venus is 10 years old, and on any Wednesday she wakes up in her smart bed. No sound: the bed monitors your sleep and adjusts the temperature and lights for the perfect awakening.
Before going out, Venus consults him smart mirror who suggests clothes based on the weather and her personal tastes, and tells her how she's doing with that little burn on her hand taken the day before. Then, she gets on autonomous school bus which takes her to school while relaxing in comfortable surroundings.
During the day, Venus and her classmates follow the lesson carefully. Teachers guide them in learning while also using advanced digital tools that enrich their experience. Simulations in VR e AR to explore the world, interactive games that make studying fun too. Why not? Among the subjects, starting this year there is also the introductory study of artificial intelligence, to prepare for the future.
The smart stays
Antoine receives from concierge robots a personalized digital key, which allows him access to his room and other areas of the hotel. In the lift and on the way you can already consult personalized suggestions on tourist places to visit and local attractions.
Once in the room, Antoine is greeted by an AI assistant who recognizes him and puts him at ease by explaining all the comforts he can enjoy and the hotel's services. Everything can be controlled with voice commands, even remotely: when Antoine is out for a tour of the city, he already programs the time for the hot bath that he will take when he returns to his room.
During his stay, Antoine is "pampered" by a very high level of service and attention to detail. From personalized suggestions to intelligent room service that understands your food preferences and any dietary restrictions, the AI-run hotel exceeds your expectations in every way.
Good morning, architect
Francesco is a talented architect who uses advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) technologies to create innovative and amazing projects. Thanks to advanced programs that simulate the physics and materials of his projects, Francesco can create precise and realistic scenarios and models even before starting construction. With 3D printing, he can even give customers a souvenir of their new home. With VR, it also allows its customers to explore and experience his projects in 3D, making the design process closer to the needs of those who will have to live in a place.
Francesco also uses advanced AI algorithms that analyze his surroundings and optimize his designs for factors such as energy efficiency, sustainability and accessibility, creating beautiful, functional and eco-friendly designs. His experience is a testament to how these technologies in 2040 have improved the way architects design and create, leading to more collaborative, efficient and planet.
Flying, oh oh: airport scenarios
Ashanti arrived at the airport and checked in her luggage with the help of an AI-powered robot capable of verifying her identity using advanced verification algorithms facial recognition. After the usual quick security checks (with biometric data), she went to buy something in the duty-free shop equipped with advanced augmented reality displays that provided personalized advice and offers based on her preferences and shopping history. purchase.
Another half hour and she headed to the gate, where she caught the plane. A giant of the sky, equipped with advanced systems that allow you to optimize fuel consumption by regulating altitude and speed and making flight more ecological and economical. During the flight, Ashanti used advanced entertainment scenarios that offered personalized recommendations based on his preferences, providing an immersive and enjoyable experience. And then, yes, he slept soundly.
There were also no queues upon landing, nor manual checks: Ashanti collected her luggage in less than five minutes and left the airport ready to continue her journey. Advanced technology has made air travel much more efficient and eco-friendly, with a greater focus on the passenger experience.
Future scenarios, in summary
Far from “scared” narration which has marked the scenarios of this nascent period of artificial intelligence, I wanted to show you the "bright" side. The opportunities that AI offers us can make the future truly fascinating, full of potential and opportunities that await us around the corner. Of course, we must also remember to approach these innovations with caution and awareness, always keeping in mind the potential risks and dangers. Enthusiasm for new things must always come to terms with the responsibility to act wisely.
By taking a prudent and responsible approach, we can ensure that the future is not only exciting, but also safe and sustainable for generations to come. After all, this is our mission: to make the world a better place for us and for those who will come after us. Of all the future scenarios, this is my favorite.
