There is no case to justify an assumption as true.
How would you judge the impact of 'technology' over the past 20 years? The 20 years before that were pretty revolutionary too, and so were the 20 years prior to that.. and... the 20 years prior... and... Bias comes from the life one's lived.
How to measure the impact, then? Life expectancy? Education? Gender equality? Access to clean air and water? A safe house that the majority of people can afford doing a job they don't hate? All these things that go into Human Development? Of which HDI [1] is but one, of which some have had progress in some countries. But fear mongering, playing on insecurities, that gets investor money for the hope some fraction of wealth can be accumulated by peddlers of such insecurity. You are a useful distraction.
