I mean, pick your poison. Either the humans are more reliable or the computers are. Either way is subject to some level of fallibility.

The wikipedia article calls out that the compounding sequence of issues started when autopilot was silently disabled, so the human system was in control when the pilots did not intend it to be.

I think the critical issue in both cases is that the wrong system was in control against the pilots wishes.

So, the pilots can pick my poison based on their training and best judgement (and maybe not put their children in control?).
