Would we still use slaves if technology never went further ahead?

Slavery exists as it is, but it seems somewhat doubtful for acceptance of slavery to grow, since that would depress wages and increase unemployment, which breeds instability. Having said that, the reverse can happen; slavery leads to a decrease in technological progress since inefficiency is acceptable when labor costs are low.
