They are not close to humans at all. They are good for very specific tasks only. Edit: Spelling

  You are right - for specific tasks. E.g. in computer vision they are able to surpass humans for static image recognition. For image segmentation they are getting close already. For generating art they IMO have surpassed some "artists" already ;-) If you think about it, even with 90% accuracy they are worth it as they could almost automate some cognitively-difficult tasks and for those instances that they can't do it properly, a human can intervene. So instead of 10 humans watching over something you end up with a single one. It would take some time until all we have in the research is in production and that will change a lot of things. After that there might be another AI winter (who knows if we can do general intelligence?), but with current pipeline it might take a while to reach plateau.
