"And, yet, none of it seems to have much to do with functionalism, with staying alive and certainly not with industries I would say."

That's exactly what the quote says. You're being very uncharitable with your interpretation.

Either way, it's not thing that would come close to justifying the extreme importance these tech companies are placing on it.

If you disagree, can you articulate the point in your own words so that others can see the subtlety it's missing?

The point of clear communication is so that someone can understand your argument without having to squint and struggle.

Edit: To which I would add, the point of quoting someone else's thoughts is because they ostensibly communicate it better than you yourself can. I think this quote fails that.
