I don't buy it. The mechanical and agricultural advantage gained from industrial automation and intensification of farming has been fuelled by hydrocarbon development and use over the last 100 years or so. Peak oil and the impossibility of sustained compound growth will prevent pervasive development of 'bots' as sketched out in the vid - also we're not stupid enough to allow it to happen ... are we?
