What does it threaten really?
It works for contact centers for bots to answer short simple questions, so that agents' time would be used more efficiently. I'm not sure it saves that much money TBF.
It works for image classification. And still needs checking.
It works for OCR. And still needs checking.
It works for voice recognition and transcription, which is actually cool. Still needs checking.
What makes you think that? Was the Mechanical Turk a big step towards thinking robots?
They are very good at pretending to be that big step for people who don't know how they work.
