Well, not exactly, but these AI response systems are not cheap to run, you either:
A: Need to use a third party which charges you a non-trivial amount of money per response
B: Host it yourself on the cloud, which charges you a non-trivial amount of money for computation costs
C: Host it yourself bare metal, which costs a VERY non-trivial amount of front for hardware and still costs you a nontrivial (but lower amount) monthly for electricity/maint
But yeah no... they are a shit tonne cheaper than people though. So it is that the horse is being replaced by the streetcar.
