The Importance of Technology in Civilization

I don't see how we like grasp the reins of technology because this has been a decline in the use of technology since the 70s. I mean, what's, what is, what have we invented that are good for civilization and useful? The strategy of living. That's knowledge. That's techniques. And just as that 65 year old man that's facing death in a decade,. He's not hallucinating that there's a potion that he can swallow that's going to drag him back to age 20."
