Maybe not destiniy, but probably our way of managing the challenges of evolution. Other species adapt biologically to chnages in their nenvironment, or when colonizing new living environments. Man cannot do that at the needed speed, or he is trying to live in surroundings where he cannot suvive: deep sea, space, etc. We use technology to adapt to these environments. Seen that way, technology maybe should be considered as a way of evolution. - that's why it is totally idiotic these days if romantic minds are calling for returning to the "good ol' days" and living in harmony with nature again. we have broken so many thing in the biosphere of our planet that we hardly will survive the consequences without technology and sciences, while other species try to adapt as best as they can, many of them failing and dying for not being flexible and fast enough.
