Technology doesn't make resources, it uses resources to produce wealth. Improving technology improves the efficiency with which this can be done. Stopping growth in the technological improvements doesn't mean we go back to zero, we simply get stuck at the current level of efficiency. Also the premise is unrealistic anyway. Technological improvements will still happen incrementally even with zero funding for research. Especially as big changes occur and needs arrive.
