I doubt I'll see electronic clothing of any variety and I won't miss the experience. I also don't see hemp as a panacea, although I do see its value in partially replacing things like the wood pulp industry. Hemp is strong enough for rope and cordage but can be made soft enough for breathable clothing.

It was a major cash crop until the DEA got its shorts in a bunch. Chances are it will be again.
