These mindless bots seem to be the only “magical” new technology that has come about in the past 7 years

Molten Salt Reactors, high density batteries, mRNA vaccines, and high efficiency electric flying machines also come to mind.

Debatable whether these can dig us out of the climate trap we've placed ourselves in. But we're definitely still advancing technologically.

No argument there. But the investor class will always find ways to burn more resources because of their growth addiction. I think the only way out of the climate trap is via social transformation (e.g. Green New Deal).
