How has having access to a perfect high speed precision mathematical instrument that can calculate pi to 400 digits in a fraction of a fraction of a second made people better at math?
it hasn't
There will be tons of mathematical geniuses coming from generation Z and some lucky late ones in generation Y

Are you stuck in the 19th century, brainlet?

how is it not?

It allowed proving the four color theorem and proving that a sudoku problem requires at least 17 hints to be uniquely solvable.

Well, it has always been like this since proto popsci was made with lots of scientists like pic related desu.
We will always have great scientists as long this trend keeps going but I guess you're right here since there has never been this easy to see lots of interesting videos of science in the modern era where you can just google what primes are and their properties, etc.
I wonder if on the future we will have more approach to science and have a fuckton of geniuses than now though, probably we will have holograms in schools so we can see how these interesting science works without actually using any kind of materials or similar things.

Innovation keeps becoming harder too though.

Well your example is inconsistent.
When Microsoft launched an AI powered bot on twitter, /pol/ retards fed that with fascist bullshit and it ended up saying "heil hitler". If they would have instead only given her some powerful arguments on fascism using essays including thousands of words, it wouldn't be able to make sense out of it. So, it would ended up saying some bullshit with logically broken and unstructured sentences.
Reason is that that AI hasn't got a structure to make something meaningful out of a complex essay.
How is this analogous to my argument?
Think genZ children as AI that are not yed fed with data. If you give them a "perfect high speed precision mathematical instrument that can calculate pi to 400 digits in a fraction of a fraction of a second", they will most probably ask you to fuck off. (analogous to complex essays)
If you give them today's traditional mathematical education, they will say something meaningful in the context of your data. (analogous to /pol/ retards making it say "heil hitler")
If you give them 3Blue1Brown videos that gives intuition and proper visualization and introduce them with mathematical concepts and then give them means of using it. That child will have an understanding of mathematics that most of us don't have.

I don't think so, maybe on entertainment and soft sciences like psychology and sociology, yeah, we're running out of ideas.
But on things like Economics, Chemistry, Math, Astronomy, Materials Engy and maybe Theoretical CS we will have some more years to go before innovation truly becomes scarce.
However on Physics we just need to make the shit needed for research cheaper so we could have more research on plenty of things other than particle physics @ CERN.
I'm pretty sure the first science that will die (or has already died) of innovation will be Geography desu.
