Many things could save so many lives, many past inventions, like insulin fir example. Yet, our capitalist economic system does not prioritise that, it prioritises profit. So instead of being used to help beings in pain, such inventions are generally used to squeeze out profit, buried behind high paywalls.
Id caution against techno-utopianism in the context of our reality. There is no chance of anything similar in capitalism.j
