First off, how are you being discarded?

Second point, the electronic clones wouldn't be exact duplicates of
humans,
but would rather do all the boring tasks that most humans dont want to
do,
with a precision not available to most human brains.

Thirdly, there is a price factor. Humans are labor and have to be paid
continously,
while the AIs are slaves and are a one time cost.
