A billion times over market price, funny; who in their right mind would even pay 20x over market price in any meaningful amount without requiring some sort of control?
Yes of course. I'm just saying that usually these systems are badly designed, and recognizing errors correctly is a surprisingly hard problem.
In the medical world, many people have been killed by mistakes in prescriptions, despite everything going through computers and multiple humans checking it.
The problem was that the machines were too sensitive to mistakes and trained the humans to ignore warnings. They also didn't distinguish mild warnings from extreme warnings. E.g. a prescription being 2x larger than recommended, or 100x larger than recommended, which are very different situations. A well designed interface might have different shades of red for different levels of severity. To give an indication if something is really wrong.
My mother use computers all day, and also hates them and think they are illogical.
In a way she is correct, I saw her many times freaking out at a dialog box and calling me to "fix it", and it was just some absolutely useless "warning", but I also saw her many times clicking "ok" on a important message without reading and then wondering why things broke.
