Could this lead to something like a Replicant in Blade+Runner?

It's one thing if some people want to create artificial humans to do various tasks that are too dangerous for humans. However, what might artificial life fused with A.I. might want to do? Especially, if it wants to do things that standard biological humans can't or don't want to do.

What if someday some people would like to create AI human replicas with the intent to replace humanity? AI entities doing dangerous jobs and tasks are one thing, but to totally replace humans would have very dangerous implications.
