For the IEC-2029 competition

An alien intelligence can be quite friendly, and it seems to me that in the future, in 2029, we will live with aliens who will teach us everything, and it seems to me that this will be a completely alien world. It will be a world so alien that we won't even understand what is good and what is bad in it. Just as, for example, a knight of King Arthur could not form a moral concept of the modern world — he would not understand anything in it at all, starting with parliamentary government. What is a parliament when there is a living suzerain? Likewise, he, of course, would not understand how serfs and free shooters could exist in huge numbers, live in clover, and get by completely without masters. This would be inaccessible to his understanding; he could not imagine it. In the same way, we do not understand what will happen in 10-20 years; we cannot see it. The future provides primarily for the emotional evolution of a person, who becomes kinder and more tolerant, plus the development of technologies to uncharted heights. Practically instantaneous movements around the planet, thought-communication, robots that do all the dirty work, ecologization, with the help of nanotechnology we will forget what old age and diseases are. And most likely, our entire population will turn into a single whole — I mean the absence of classes, the presence of a leader, and the cult of his personality. We will probably get by with one currency. IEC will be engaged, in addition to the current exchange, in the exchange of students to other galaxies. Everyone will start using ecological transport, and as for Kazakhstan and America, we will be on the same level both financially and socially. This is my opinion for 2029, although I will be almost 40 years old, I will still be glad for such a magnificent world.
