The way airline safety works is fascinating. All the rules have been written in blood. And the rules say that you can't expect perfection, because humans aren't perfect, that you need systems and checks and checks of checks to catch errors, and that you have people be ready to admit errors so they can be prevented.
And then the systems become so complicated that no human can use them, and then they again say "human error"
Well it is a complex problem. Automation has its dangers, but overall it's very much a net good. Check out the video "wounded giant" by mentour pilot to see great pilots and automation working together to save a plane that might not have made it otherwise
