It's also notable that human error tends to occur in predictable ways which can be prepared for and noticed much more easily, while machine errors tend to be entirely random and unpredictable. For example: When a human makes a judgment on a medical issue which poses a very significant risk to the patient, they will generally put more effort into ensuring an accurate result/pay more attention to what they're doing.
