Of course, the scammers have created their own AI to call people and scam them so it's just playing catchup.

It's like corporate avatars for hiring or cold call bots for sales.

I'd say stick to white listed numbers, but pro phones can't do that, and they are the most prone to spam.

It would seem to me that it's a lot easier to build an AI that acts as a non-tech-savvy granny to keep scammers busy, than one that actually successfully executes a complete scam from start to finish on a real life person.
