Given that vast amounts of data have already been lost, even ones still considered valuable (e.g. the source code of some popular early games), I honestly see no chance that digital data will survive anything close to how well books survive, let alone comparisons with stone tablets.
I'll be honestly surprised if I can still access all my pictures stored today in the cloud by the time I'm in my seventies, 40 years from now. All it takes is a banned account, a forgotten password, one too many lost MFA factors, and bye bye data.
