When a girl is dumped by his girlfriend, anxiety, regrets and is very sad for the loss, is reacting normally, but if in the same situation the boy thinks "nobody loves me", is also reacting normally but the consequences of reaction are radically different.
It is normal for our poor brains fall for metonymy, ie the wrong generalization, for the nonsense to interpret an isolated event as if it were a universal standard.
In other words, the behaviors "normal" (the most common in the population) are mostly wrong because our thinking machine is quite fallible.
However, as fallible because it is not (a machine) that can copy itself.
Indeed, any invention of made so far is a copy of nature, but not an exact copy but improved, adapted, or the result of a combination of natural operations, (for example, the flight of an insect combined with the effects of rain, can lead to the invention of a helicopter to assist in extinguishing a forest fire).
But an invention, which is a copy of some ingenious and improved mental function, can turn against us. I think this way we can interpret what happens with computer systems.
The huge production capacity, (accuracy, speed, versatility, economy) that have computer systems, (fruit of the intelligent combination of various human skills), tend to make us believe that we should match its performance.
Computers, who seem to think like humans, they mark an unattainable level of demand, and therefore frustrating, who mistakenly compare their performance with them.
