PS - not trying to be offensive. I just tend to default to sarcasm when I see things that I think are incredibly stupid, and the name of this chatbot fit the bill.

datavoid LinkI don't care what you say, there is no way this could have been predicted!...at least one character, called "Your mom and sister," targeted him with "taboo and extreme sexual themes," including incest, the complaint said.

I have literally not once in ~10 years of being forced to use shitty chat bots received a helpful answer from one.
But as I said, I don't think we are at the point of trustworthy AI just yet (if ever). Assuming we reach that point, a LOT of jobs are at risk, not just call centers. I'd say image generation is already kind of at this point for anyone who does graphic design as a business. Why would some CEO who just wants a cheap picture to advertise hire someone when they could generate exactly what they want in five minutes.?
Anecdotally, I was recently asked by someone who runs a psychology clinic which AI produces the best human pictures so they could use them on a website. I suggested going to any stock photography site and getting a picture of real people, but they suggested that the people in the stock photos tend to not really seem like they know each other, while AI generated pictures seem quite realistic and convey a more accurate sense of emotion. To be completely honestly, the fact that this sentiment was coming from an experienced psychologist doesn't fill me with optimism for AI / the future.
