I agree with the conclusion but not necessarily the why. I don't think therapy is always about projecting your other relationships on to your therapist. A lot of time its your relationship with yourself that you're trying to work through. Or sometimes you just need someone who can observe and challenge you. Or sometimes you just need the space to be honest about what's going on in your mind where there won't be the social consequences of saying that to your friends or family. I agree that the frame of the therapist-client relationship is key. I agree that AI simply cannot replicate that. You need someone on the other end who has both the deductive ability but also the emotional intelligence to either suss out or help you suss out what exactly is causing discomfort. And AI just can't create that frame because of how we expect to use it.
