impossible auditions?

I've heard A LOT here lately about orchestra auditions and that people aren't advance to the finals. Is this a trend? Are orchestras looking for the "perfect" player. My two cents: If orchestras wanted this "perfect" player that can play every note in tune, in correct style, and never misses a note - Why don't they just hire a machine?
With Orchestras hiring these machines, how is it affecting the orchestra? -- Machines cannot convey emotion - could this be why orchestras are dying?

just some questions that have been looming here lately
