Like in the past people didn't care about things like dissecting corpses? What technical and scientific progress at unreal rates? The amount of information and data increased, but a lot of other things are highly incremental at best. If the progress is so great, why hasn't productivity increased a lot or life expectancy? Parallel universe indeed. The idea that we discovered most things has quite a lot of hubris in it, given the vast sways of things we only have a poor grasp on. Not sure the iPhone is an example of improved quality of life as the effect varies quite a lot between use cases.
