True, but given *any* technology, it will not likely to improve much,
except a steady increase in quality, or a steady decrease in price.
On the other hand, some modest extensions to the old written
culture, e.g. the Zork stories, required more interactive technology.
In this case the culture made a quantum leap to a whole new technology.

But even if a technology is open-ended it is limited (at least today).
Are you saying that at some point in the future, there will exists
a technology so powerful (i.e. limitless) that it can satisfy everyones
basic need to explore her curiosity and imagination? Another
possibility would be that imagination is limited.
