It’s not just extreme cases like saving children without authorization—have you ever heard someone (possibly a parent) saying that constant supervision is more work than doing the task themselves?
That’s only true if you (the supervisor) know how to perform the task yourself. However, there are a great many tasks that we don’t know how to do, but could evaluate the result if the AI did them for us. We could ask it to prove P!=NP, to write provably correct programs, to design machines and materials and medications that we could test in the normal way that we test such things, etc.
