In this case it is even worse.

If black has clear winning chances even without sacrificing material then this
sacrifice is even clearly wrong against humans because there is no reason to
take unnecessary risks.

In this case the question is what is the reason that GM play so weak games
against computers.

I cannot understand it.
Even if they lose on purpose they can lose on purpose in a way that is going to
seem more logical to the spectators.
