Worst part is that chatbots are usually sold with intention to replace humans, so there's not much hope for getting help from a real person, especially if business is at the state where owner kicked all developers and support out to cut costs, i.e. increase profit.

First level support already often feels like talking to a bot. Just low-paid employees reciting their scripts, with no understanding or autonomy. That can be replaced with bots without a drop in (average) quality. You just have to teach the bot to escalate to (human) second and third level support for questions it can't solve.
