I don't think this scenario is realistic. It would almost certainly be easier and cheaper to use mechanical automation over human slaves.

Compare the service in a fast food joint to the service in a four-star restaurant. Certainly, the fast food joint is cheaper, but price is not the only factor here. The same applies to seeing a live band compared to listening to a recording, or getting a manicure compared to just cutting your own nails, or... any number of things, up to and including sex work.
