There's nothing surprising about that. Human experience transferred through the ages has been lost to automation and profit-seeking via workforce-reduction. The machine/algorithm may have 80% of the human expertise of railway/post operators, but it's lost the last 20% that made operations seamless.
And it's certainly made work more tedious and painful, which does not exactly lead to better outcomes in the long run. I would certainly recommend reading « La mécanique des lettres » on this topic, but unfortunately i can't find an english translation.
