From the NY Times, an interesting read (PDF). An excerpt:

Models have other advantages beyond their accuracy and consistency. They allow an organization to codify and centralize its hard-won knowledge in a concrete and easily transferable form, so it stays put when the experts move on.

They are also faster than people, are immune to fatigue and give the human experts more time to work on other tasks beyond the current scope of machines.
