I'm not sure how you measure investment in computing "as a whole", but I'm pretty sure this prediction is demonstrably wrong in any metric you choose. Imagine comparing a modern economy with that of a country that had not invested in computing at all - maybe Cuba would be the best example?

But I think optimizing for productivity may be missing the point, if it simply means some rate of product creation with respect to human and natural resource inputs. This I can see ending in the same old questions - what exactly did Plato mean by the good life, and how do we optimize for it as a species, or at least minimize suffering at the same scope.
