In 1899, Charles H. Duell, the Commissioner of US patent office was very worried because he thought they must have to close soon. Because as he thought and articulated loudly: "everything that can be invented has been invented." (https://patentlyo.com/patent/2011/01/tr ... ented.html)
Just imagine how the world will look like in another 125 years.

Penicillin, insulin, airplanes, cars, high-speed trains, radio broadcasting, plastic, frozen food, the TV, the computer, internet, etc, etc.
Compared to 1899, we can treat a tremendous amount of diseases, we can travel much faster and ship things around the world and we can easily communicate all around the world. We live in a very different world.
