You're right that it'll get better, but I agree it likely won't be the same as a human. The difference is it'll cost nothing in comparison. That's the threat. If they can get the job done 80% as well with a fraction of 1% of the cost, they're probably taking it. They don't want to use AI because it's just as good or better, but because it's a hell of a lot cheaper.
