GUIs have an inherent advantage here: discoverability. If you think about it, conversational UIs, even turbo-charged by AI, are not that different from Command Line Interfaces.
You need to have an idea that you want something. You lose the serendipity inherent to visual interfaces.
We should never underestimate the power of the human visual cortex.

Think about trying to book a holiday online and navigating all the interfaces for flights, accomodation, tours, etc. Versus going to see a travel agent, where you can loosely describe what you want and walk out with exactly what you need having interacted with zero graphical interfaces.
