> How can you bring yourself to trust a human teacher? Humans are wrong sometimes too, often with confidence.

If humans/AIs are wrong about a topic (in particular wrong in a confident way) multiple times, I will stop trusting them to be experts in the topic. What I experienced is rather that many human experts in academia tend to be honest when they are not sure about the answer.
