in the future we'll all have our digital assistants that are going to be smarter than ourselves

We already have that from a lot of standpoints. Math, routing and the ability to look up all of human knowledge.

We don't think our phones are slaves because they don't have emotions or a nervous system.

No one don't think plants are slaves for the same reason.

This is not a deep or philosophical problem.
