It's not about giving AI a free pass - obviously we should try to remove these errors. It's about whether one reasonable option for removing these errors is to stop using AI or not. If AI increases error rates that would be a reasonable option. If AI doesn't increase the error rates, or even reduces them, it might not be. And hence comparing AI use to a fictional situation where no errors happens is not meaningful. I've personally caught multiple errors that were not just transcription errors, but elementary reasoning errors done by specialists I've seen - the baseline error rate from healthcare providers is far above zero.
