I think he's making a good point but arguments it poorly. A better argument would be not that "it makes us less human" etc, but that it teaches people to be lazy and avoid problem solving. It's the "there's an app for that" attitude. The calculator attitude, the GPS attitude. You're trained to avoid any difficulty, and I can imagine a person trained to only use ready solutions will just give up if he can't buy/download/solve it in browser. It's not just about being washed away on a remote island or emergency events like wars. It's also loss of resourcefulness.
