we don't expect perfection from humans, so why should we expect it from AI?

If we can't expect better from an AI than from a human, why should we use the AI (other than so you don't have to pay workers)?

I think there's an important semantic difference between worse performance and correctness. Tools, like AI, can underperform when compared to humans and still be very useful and worth investing into, but that's only as long as they perform correctly.
