There are many intermediate applications. From my own computer vision classes at university I remember examples of jobs when a guy is sitting and looking at a factory line or a machine for 8 hours a day in order to press a button if something goes wrong. This is a kind of work that bores humans out of their minds (thus making them extremely fallible), and that can be done much better with a few cameras and a computer running not-very-supercomplicated computer vision algorithms.
