What is your opinion on the societal effects of this lack of trust? This default trust on computer systems undermine trust in other humans. How can we hope to live in a community we do not trust? Why would i take into consideration X opinion on foreign trade if this "computer" thing is likely to be less wrong?

That's like saying elevators should still have a person controlling it manually because computers would deteoriate societal trust

An elevator can be considered a purely mechanical, not-social thing. Traffic can have a social aspect to it, most of us do not really care and consider it too to be a not-social thing. My point was more about what happens when we take things with social aspects and start to think of them as purely "mechanical" things. At that point having a human do activity "X" will appear dumb, like having a human control an elevator today. Could we still call this future world a society, since there is nothing social about it? Essentially we will dehumanize everything, and to me it seems sad.
