A crash course in changing the world.
A horror scenario:
We write the year 2050. Overcrowding has negative effects on both the environment and social conditions. There is an uneven population distribution, on the earth live many older people and less young people.
The older people have problems to follow the fast technological development --> these older people are replaced in job by younger people.
Besides many jobs like a teacher are disappear in their original form. Meanwhile there is a Hologram from a teacher or prof, which can be downloaded by everyone, who is permitted, in a house and does his studies from home. So the teacher or the prof has to hold a lecture only once --> there are fewer teachers and profs needed.
The machines do the most usual work--> they replace people with low qualified jobs.
Because of this and other changes there are significant social inequalities within the society. Many people have no job or do jobs, which they have to do and therefore they are dissatisfied. The more people are dissatisfied, the more they become frustrated and aggressive.
This could be a big problem with the crime. So what to do?
Ushahidi could be helpful to identify and locate the social discruption in crisis situation. But this would be an aftercare. Prevention is better than cure. So now we have to reconsider the technological development and just think about the impact of "rapidly advancing technology development" could have in the future.
Sorry, It was a bit too digressed from the task.
