Because the commercially available tools aren't that good and because they kept working on it until it was better.
If they kept working on it I think they would run into an asymptote. Maybe they could get closer and closer to 90% accuracy on a task with real hardware, 92% boiling the oceans, and 93% with a Dyson sphere, 93.5% if you can harness a quasar. At that point it probably passes a whiteboard interview and the people who have to fix the bugs can console themselves that the last programmer had neither a brain nor a soul.
That system has an approximate, not an exact model of the domain it works on and that is why it has an asymptote. Turning a graph-structured program into a vector is like mapping the curved surface of the Earth onto a flat map -- except instead of it being a 3-dimensional space it is more like a 1000-dimensional space. Information is destroyed in that process and forever lost so there will always be important characteristics of the problem that it will never "get".
If the message recipient is a person they will meet you halfway and might even accept bullshit if it is presented with complete confidence and lack of shame. The computer will interpret exactly what you said and reveal that you're a dog. (e.g. mute animal)
