Absolutely! There is not enough data here to signify the actual performance of the algorithm.
Without more data it's not clear if the algorithm is actually effective - e.g. if the approval rate of these loans is 80% for instance, a formula of "always return true" could be said to be '80% accurate compared to human decisions'.
And if the AI makes the same decisions as a human 95% of the time, but then makes horrific errors the other 5% of the time, it wouldn't be an appropriate replacement for the human. This is the same issue with self driving - it doesn't matter if you make great decisions 99% of the time if 1% of the time you decide to drive into a wall (until you have got your error down to a place where it's safer on aggregate than a human).
