Is the primary advantage of these systems over human deciders that they make better decisions or that they can be sold as being free of bias in ending?

I'd think that the primary advantage is they don't require paying salaries.

Maybe adding to that is that is that from a practitioners point of view AI is marketed heavily because most of the large tech companies can increase higher utilization rates of their infrastructure
