It’s not worth it because of the compounding effect when it is a repeated process. 98% accuracy might be fine for a single iteration, but if you run your process 365 times (maybe once a day for a year) whatever your output is will be so wrong that it is unusable.

Can you name a single job like this? It's much easier to name jobs where the accuracy doesn't compound, like daily customer service chatbots, or personal-tutor bots, or news-aggregator bots, or the inevitable (and somewhat dubious) do-my-tax-returns bot.

All I can think of is vibe-coding, and vibe-coding jobs aren't a thing.
