Since that time HAMT was invented and successfully used in Scala and Clojure, so this talk didn't age well.
Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_array_mapped_trie) links to the paper describing HAMT (https://infoscience.epfl.ch/server/api/core/bitstreams/f66a3...) and claims that is from 2000. That talk is from 2016.
