high temperature superconducting would cause a big leap. cheap energy would also help. cheap compute-in-the-walls. machines doing all the dangerous jobs.

Cheap energy is possible now with solar. There is a reason why it hasn't been done yet. Nobody has a need for it. Remember, you may think it would be nice to have an electric car you can charge for microcents a mile, but most people dgaf about putting gas in their car.
Machines doing dangerous jobs also is a thing these days.
High temperature superconducting can potentially be useful in a few applications that involve high current, which mostly deal with transportation. The only real advantage of this is drone delivery service becoming cheaper, but that has big hurdles to cross.
There is a reason why being a streamer is the top choice of "what I wanna be" when you ask kids. Everything is about the internet now in terms of motivation. And unfortunately there, we already hit a hard limit of the speed of light.

that doesn't sound like a very good way to improve human life on Earth.
