I think the misunderstanding is this:

We don't expect it. We require it of a commercial application of this technology.

It's like self driving cars, if we are going to hand such a task off to machines, we need it to be better than the humans doing the job, not just cheaper. (A brick on my gas petal is a self driving car, but not appropriate for sale as "AI")

And honestly, I don't think they will get much better without radical method change. They already get fed basically the entire corpus of human written tokens accessible in English. And soon it will be tainting its food supply with it's own spoor.
