How long until AI automates all cognitive labor?

You make a good point that not having it is easy to spot. But what precisely would flip the switch?

Seducing someone for example, how often would that have to work? On all people? Maybe that was just thrown out as an example but it points to how subjective these goal posts are.

This problem was inherent even in the original turing test. Is it AI if it fools just one person? Or does it have to fool everybody?

It has to fool the average person. Fooling someone with low IQ/bad perception is not really a feat.
