Russia will end up with more land than before the war but it will be so insignificant that the war will be regarded as a failure both inside and outside Russia.

Likely things in 2023: - Successful lawsuits against using artwork to train AI models without permission - Well known, successful artists will use generated AI in their work. This includes film. - AI models generate music and audio well, as seen with text and images earlier - AI based film analysis that lets you walk around in 3d in film scenes will become widely available - Twitter will shrink. Advertisers will focus elsewhere. - SpaceX will go orbital with SpaceShip (doing 3/4 of an orbit counts). - An astronaut from a nation other than China will visit the chinese space station - Strains on worldwide logistics will disappear due weak demand - At least one private moon mission will manage a successful landing - Some climate protests go non-peaceful (children of Kali, read "Ministry for the Future") - New nasal Covid-19 vaccines will stop people from becoming ill and spreading the disease further, ending the pandemic in the West.

- (Ukraine has always claimed its territory, including Crimea.) - Putin is assassinated, Russia splits into several countries, which then hold civil elections successfully, - Trump Mar-a-lago cases are dismissed by courts, - Twitter rises in popularity while Facebook, Amazon, and Google fall from favor. Amazon goes bankrupt after several financial scandals, - Army releases formerly-secret flu vaccine they've held for 30 years that stops all influenzas.
