This is the classic issue of creating newer, better, more advanced technology and science within a broken social / economic system. Feeding better tools into a broken society just makes things worse. Giving dictators better ways to spy on and dominate their population (and to wage war) just worsens those things, even though that same technology and science in an already-existing utopian society could have been used to improve life on Earth for everyone.
