The dystopian part is something about having a robot standing between us and human contact. I prefer texting over calling as much as the next millennial, but no one asked for them to insert AI into the process. No doubt this is an opt out "service" primarily designed to allow Apple to use all of their customers'conversations as training data.
This scenario is a comic exaggeration of the worst case, but serves as a good example of exactly what's wrong.
