      It depends on what technology you are asking about:D technology has been around for a very long time now! But if you saw half the things, you wouldn’t believe they use to be what technology was. However, in the last 20 years, technology has improved a lot!

      I work in medical engineering so I shall give you some examples from that.
      False legs have been around for a really long time, they have found preserved legs in swamps made of wood and metal. But we are developing new false legs all the time so you can now get false legs that have motors and sensors in and they move the knees and and the ankles and can help you walk very normally. The paralympians have false legs made of carbon that might make them faster that natural legs.
      But there some other technologies like certain types of imaging such as CT and MRI that were developed in the last fifty years, but even these are being developed all the time to make them better, giving clearer images so we can diagnose illnesses sooner.
