True!
Also I think, our problems are different now compared to our ancestors.
Today we face more information every day, then they got in a month. This means, we have to process more and more information, but we cannot do more after a certain time. So now the biggest problem is filtering the information we get, because if we process useless information, we waste time. If we not process any information, we cannot progress.
So today's problem is more like the structuring and filtering the info we get, not how we get it.
