Determined not undermined
The world has changed and the way we live is heading towards a more humanized and civilized way: sharing, living in community, even being a nomad in order to live well, comfortably. Luxury not being omitted.
We are now redefining what we "own" and not positioning ourselves only on the premise of these possessions. It is better understood that associating a sense of community with prosperity for more people is the way to bring more comfort and easier life. It is fully possible now thanks to technology and AI. Dissociating ourselves from a fanatic individualism stemming from the consumerism of the free-market era, we can define ourselves on something else than what we have. Companies such as Airbnb or Uber have been an example. More and more applications concept are based on sustainability and community organization, where collaboration with this community allows us to have more comfortable and easier lives. It will also become an essential element in our economy if we want to survive...sustainability and sense of purpose.
AI and sustainability are now associated with travel, fashion, medicine, law, etc. and applications are revolutionizing our ownership and lifestyles. I can say that because of our environmental degradation, we are, as a society, starting to think in healthier ways about what life is about and what sustainability is. Climate change is in a way helping us to move away from the individualistic drives stemming from the eroding, wasting ways of economic linearity- where self-service, egotism, and profit at the expense of community, society, and environment prevail. We start understanding that it is even more "Profitable" to share in order to "multiply" and protect the environment we cannot dissociate ourselves from. That we are part of the environment and the society we live in.
