You want a photo of my Mensa cert to be proven otherwise? I'd be happy to oblige ;D
That said - implying that anyone with a philosophical approach to life has to be a larping schizo... says a lot about your insecurities, bud ;}
Duty to society and greater human collective?
Your duty is to your family and yourself. You can't serve greater good if you can't serve the lesser one. If you're not smart enough to understand what you want and follow that, you're not smart enough to fix the world, period.
you could help cure diseases,
the proper solution for diseases is to evolve. The genes adapt. Nothing needs to be done.

No technology can help nor save people nor society. Technology creates problems, not solves them. The world would be an utopia for centuries if technology could do that.
