While I think it gets a bit preachy halfway through, it makes a good point in the beginning and the end.

Forget about machines taking over nukes and creating T-800's all they will have to do is crash the stock market and we'll do the rest.

Interesting, if shallow, interview with the founder and CEO of Loot Crate. He's another of these "disruptor " evangelists.
