Found your way here by chance? Leave a few words for the future.
Life in the AI era.
Your life in three years.
Different
today.
Brighter
tomorrow.
- What will change?
- I hope my garden will be less of a disaster. I've asked AI for help. The tomatoes remain unconvinced.
- What will you leave behind?
- Buying more seeds than I can plant.
- What do you hope to keep?
- Doing something slowly with my hands.
- What will change?
- My team already looks different. In three years I hope the extra productivity means shorter days.
- What will you leave behind?
- Meetings that could have been a message.
- What do you hope to keep?
- A proper lunch break away from a screen.
- What will change?
- Hopefully a different job. I'm learning new tools after work but it's exhausting.
- What will you leave behind?
- The 7:10 train. Please.
- What do you hope to keep?
- Friday football with the same five people.
- What will change?
- I don't know. I hope I'll still be drawing for a living, even if the job looks different.
- What will you leave behind?
- Comparing every sketch to something generated in ten seconds.
- What do you hope to keep?
- The messy sketchbooks. Especially the bad pages.
- What will change?
- Honestly, I hope AI eats the spreadsheets, not my job. I want to finish work before dinner.
- What will you leave behind?
- Checking work messages in bed. I'm bad at this.
- What do you hope to keep?
- Sunday lunch at mum's. And my very unproductive walks.
- What will change?
- I want a smaller life, not a faster one. More plants, less stuff, maybe a dog.
- What will you leave behind?
- Turning every hobby into a side hustle.
- What do you hope to keep?
- Singing badly while I wash the dishes.
- What will change?
- Less certain about my career, more certain about myself. That would be enough.
- What will you leave behind?
- Letting my inbox decide whether it was a good day.
- What do you hope to keep?
- My own voice. And the people who recognise it.
- What will change?
- I'll be 60. I'm trying these new tools, mostly so I can understand what my grandkids are talking about.
- What will you leave behind?
- Being embarrassed to ask basic questions.
- What do you hope to keep?
- Writing birthday cards by hand.
- What will change?
- Maybe I'll live near the sea. No clever prediction, just something I keep thinking about.
- What will you leave behind?
- Scrolling until 2am because tomorrow feels too soon.
- What do you hope to keep?
- Long walks with no podcast and no destination.
- What will change?
- I hope for new personal joys that make me — and the people close to me — happy.
- What will you leave behind?
- Fear. I want to feel free to do whatever I want, change my plans, and be spontaneous.
- What do you hope to keep?
- My work. I hope AI helps me do it better, but doesn’t take away everything I still love doing myself.
- What will change?
- My daughter will start school. That feels bigger than any AI news, honestly.
- What will you leave behind?
- Feeling guilty when I do nothing for an afternoon.
- What do you hope to keep?
- Reading her a story myself, even if a robot could do the voices better.
- What will change?
- Graduation, hopefully. I use AI to study but I'm still not sure what work I'll find.
- What will you leave behind?
- Pretending I have a five-year plan.
- What do you hope to keep?
- My friends from the library. We mostly talk, to be fair.
