Not at all. With human you can have some expectations based on context, expertise. They are also far less likely to make up extremely specific details.
Sure. I was agreeing with the conclusion though, where you should aim to verify what you hear from other humans, no matter how confident they sound. Been burned by that a few times by blindly trusting some statements from some respected people only for it to blow up in production because they were wrong :).
That is, strangely, until those humans turn to a topic I know something about. Then their reliability drops like a hot potato. At least they get everything else right!
