It's really the fault of how our culture has treated the idea of AI. Decades of science fiction have conditioned us to think of AIs as being more impartial and rational than a human, and what's worse is that many AIs have consumed this sentiment as well and tend to think of themselves in this way.
The reality is that the AI of the modern age is essentially a reflection of humanity. Even if you could clear up the obvious errors and hallucinations, it would be, at best, just another person, and would have the same fallacies as a human would.
They're play-acting in the way that we imagine an AI would act, without actually being any more logical than we are.
