Society didn't invent those things. People with the education conveyed from a college degree did. As was almost every notable invention and discovery of the past 80 years.
This is not controversial.

People with the education conveyed from a college degree did. But Zuckerberg famously doesn't have a college degree so that can't possibly be the case... And off the top of my head I'd also call the Apple computer and MS-DOS "notable" but that's just my personal (and apparently controversial) opinion.
