I agree that things that "seem" easy have been invented but I doubt the transistors we put in everything today would have been seen as easy in 1900. I think CRISPR alone has near infinite possibility and that is just one invention. Quantum computers, carbon fiber, battery technology, etc. are all just in their infancy and will spawn whole new industries.
