The suggestion that "hires" won't be human is so offensive; the greatest hazard of AI is the continuing of a 500-year program of chattel enslavement of people. But go ahead, but your little menagerie a virtual pizza party and tell them how important they are to your firm's success— "Our most important asset is our..." robots.
But "teammate" is a stretch. The failure mode is different from a human -- a person will tell you "I don't know how to do this," an agent will confidently do it wrong and you won't notice until something breaks in production. The supervision cost doesn't go away, it just changes shape.
