It is the application of technology that needs to be improved. After all, technology does not give us anxieties, it's our own FOMO that causes us anxieties.
Or stop people from abusing each other?
Or decrease tensions between religion groups?

Better technology can help countries to be more productive and less dependent on other countries. This would reduce tensions between countries and consequently reduce armed conflicts.
> Or decrease tensions between religion groups?
Tension between groups can be reduced by making people more aware about how people in the other group are really. For example, a Christian can change his mind about Muslims after spending time talking with a Muslim. With technology you can help people in different groups to understand better people in the other group.
Of course these are speculative answers, and technology has been proven to be highly unpredictable (people predicting that in 2020 there would be flying cars) so I know my predictions are probably false. But they are useful to understand how technology can help. On the other hand, history shows us that technology has helped consistently the (read the article posted here for an extensive list of example).
Unfortunately technology was already used for the opposite purpose.
More productive in producing weapons for invasion. If country will be more dependent - they will consider opportunity costs of going into the war. But here we are, with biggest war in Europe since ww2.
Looks like technology can only help people to create a more sophisticated ways to kill each other.
If technology can help to create more sophisticated way to kill each other, it can also be used to create the defense against the same. Laser can be a killing weapon, or can also be used to shoot down drones.
And this is saying nothing about civilian application that save instead of killing each other.
I’m laughing harder than when the blockchain lunatics claimed they were going to solve political corruption. Well at least they had some contrived “how” instead of just making a completely unexplained speculation.
Naive. Russia started a war once they became less dependent on other countries. Now they are using modern tech like cryptocurrency to circumvent sanctions.
