We're as close to 2040 as we are to 2004. Not much will change technologically aside from greater connectivity to the internet. We'll have the equivalent to 9G internet and everything from your garage door to your laundry machine will be connected online. Netflix and Disney+ will cost $300 per month each, and you must watch ads every 5 minutes. Ads will also appear as an unblockable built in software feature on new TVs, phones, consoles, refrigerators, and cars.

Politically, assuming nuclear war hasn't occurred, things will be even worse than today. Most western countries will be governed by neofascist boomer Facebook conservatives (think Trump and Bolsonaro but worse) and public "truth" will become subjective and based on a combination of feelings and the quantity of memes about it.
