I think if you take that demonstration at face value, then you are the exact kind of sucker Apple is preying on with that kind of advertisement.
First of all, even if it is an actual person manipulating the device, do you think Apple would include the footage where the person screwed up an mis-typed? I bet to recreate that video in the perfect way it is now would take at least triple the length of it, just because of all the mistakes you would make.
Secondly, someone below points out that the hand very well could be superimposed in the video, while the iPhone is being controlled remotely in some other way. If you look closely, sometimes the touches don't all sync properly as you would expect them to.
