Your use of the word "perfect" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. "Perfect" is a word embedded in a high dimensional space whose local maxima are different for every human on the planet.



No, it's just the intuitively perfect that comes to mind in this context, i.e. reliable and guaranteed to produce a safe outcome. Much like Amazon checkout process. I am fine giving my credit card details to near-perfect automatons like that. I will never give it to a statistical model, which may or may not hallucinate the sum it is supposed to enter into an interface built for humans, not computers.
