The tasks of technology and science are different. In the creative activities of human beings acting on nature, science is to know nature and explore objective truth. The essence of things, the essence of things, and the essential laws of things are the guidelines for human beings to transform nature. Technology mainly undertakes productivity, is a means to transform nature and create materials, and is a means to store knowledge and obtain information.
Technology and scientific management methods are also different. Science is achieved through the same scientific subject and the formulation of codes of conduct. Its management is flexible and loose. Science has no borders, and its knowledge is shared by the public and belongs to all mankind. Technology is implemented by the national patent department through the patent law. This management is strictly confidential for a certain period of time. Technology has national boundaries and cannot be exported without the permission of the company or the government. Science has no patent, and secrecy is immoral. However, technology has intellectual property rights, and it is immoral and even illegal to disclose technical secrets and infringe on others' patents and intellectual property rights.
If science is to know the world, then technology is to change the world. Science is to improve the level of human understanding, and technology is to enhance human survival ability and improve the quality of human life.
