mRNA vaccines. Net positive power output from fusion. Off the top of my head.
I agree with your concept of capitalism killing innovation and forcing people into dead-end jobs. But that doesn’t mean technical innovation is dead. Just means it’s not progressing optimally and not benefiting the right people.
Generative AI too. It might be hammered into everything to the point of being tiresome, but it is technologically impressive that you can have a computer just synthesise a photo/video/music.
Compare to 20 years ago. Being able to just go “Computer, create for me an original landscape painting”, and have it make one would be something that you’d only find on television/in movies.
