> If it gets something wrong, it will say "I apologize" until you, dear user, are blue in the face. If an actual person tried to do the same, the blueness would instead be on their, not your, face. Therein lies the value of a human worker.

The value of a human worker is in a more meaningful apology? I think the relevant question here is who's going to make more mistakes, not who's going to be responsible when they happen. A good human is better than AI today, but that's not going to last long.
