Exactly. Just as we also see the sun rise each morning.
That, however, does not imply one predicts that the sun will forever rise each morning. In fact, we know that at some point the sun will no longer rise in the morning. But we see the sun rise each morning, and we see a new cambrian idea or core technology every 5-10 years.

That's fair. Conflation implies intent. Whereas you are just confused.
And you are being patronising.
My point is that there’s no guarantee this tech explosion will continue. Your logic appears to be “it has, so it will, until it doesn’t”, which… okay? All of your comments so far feel like you’re disagreeing with me just because you feel like being argumentative rather than because you have something useful to say.
> Conflation is the merging of two or more sets of information, texts, ideas, or opinions into one, often in error.
It can be done as a rhetorical ploy, but that's not part of the definition, it can also simply be a mistake.
