i have been thinking about it for a while, is it possible that our technologic advencement is a complete luck?

that, our main thinker could have been different scientifics with differents big discoveries in other field, completly changing what is the world today?

that instead of focusing on on mechanical technology we would have been focusing for exemple on biotechnology a lot earlier, developing different mean of doing things?
