The Allagan have had various AIs
Really, programming something that just follows you around and drops a specific thing on a voice command is not too hard in the real world, I am sure with aether it would be not that hard in Eorzea.
There's AI as depicted in game, and then there's AI that someone with a bit of reason would want launching weapons from the sky at them. The Mammets are played as buggy and strange for laughs, to illustrate that the tech just isn't there.
The Allagans had AI, but they're gone. Getting that back is going to take a Babbage or a Turing.
