It's worse than that.

This is a different type of AI that doesn't have as many consumer facing qualities.

The ones that are being pushed now are the first types of AI to have an actually discernable consumer facing attribute or behavior, and so they're being pushed because no one wants to miss the boat.

They're not more profitable or better or actually doing anything anyone wants for the most part, they're just being used where they can fit it in.

This type of segmentation is of declining practical value. Modern AI implementations are usually hybrids of several categories of constructed intelligence.
