Imagine reading a math or programming textbook where each statement was true with probability 0.95.

Plenty of mistakes in textbooks and research articles, it's possible the probability is already even lower.
That just means you are adding errors on top of existing ones, hardly an improvement
errata. Also real humans often make mistakes in live interviews. The biggest difference is that eventually these fake humans will have lower error rates than real ones.
