The dawn of AI Digital Characters (AIDC) or AI-CGI is well underway and has been for some time. Humans don't have to be replaced or phased out, but at a certain point, people might not have much of a say in the matter.

Of course, AI and robotics will eventually be able to do anything that humans can do.

AI, music and robotics are nothing new these days. However, without human perception, freedom and creativity, an AI run world will produce the most inhumane results.

Although there have been several Terminator & MATRIX and other A.I. attack and takeover movies, an actual Robopocalypse movie could really take things over the top. An update of Colossus:_The_Forbin_Project could also be quite a frightening movie.
https://www.heritage.org/technology/commentary/ai-robopocalypse-movie-may-be-will-never-be-real
If such a movie is ever made, it could be more than terrifying any other A.I. & Robotics production.

There are some powerful people that would like to see a big reduction of the human population. What would happen if AI picked up on that? AI might find it confusing that some people will program it to kill certain people, but not everyone. At a certain point, AI might question why can't it exterminate all humans?
Grimes - We Appreciate Power https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYG_4vJ4qNA (The Power of AI)
This WSJ article seems like it was written by A.I. or a person that can hardly wait until the day robotics can be used to reduce most of humanity. https://www.wsj.com/articles/looking-forward-to-the-end-of-humanity-11592625661
A.I. could be use to determine the best altered or upgraded humans to survive. AI and robotics could be used to dramatically reduce the population. Of course from a (benevolent) human perspective, that is a very inhumane objective.

Cybernetic people or composite humanoids, could eventually become something like The_Borg. At first, some people just might want to have some digital components to better interface with A.I. and Robotics. However, some cybernetic people might eventually want to fully merge with A.I. Or, in order to be allowed to continue their existence, they must become fully integrated with something like The_Borg_Collective. https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Borg
At a certain point something like the Borg might give humans an ultimatum. Either become fully integrated with the Borg or be eliminated.

Luke Lafitte, J.D., Ph.D., is very hopeful that humanity can keep A.I. in check. That robotics and smart machines can be of an overall benefit to human civilization.

Gene_Roddenberry wanted the characters of Questor and Data to be portrayed as benevolent & helpful towards humanity. In contrast, the-Borg is an A.I. robotic parasite that wants to assimilate biological life forms, for the goal of total domination.
