TOTALLY AUTOMATIC?

May I ask my more informed colleagues to clarify?

Are e-gates dependent on human confirmation of the presented passport or is it totally reliant on biometrics?

I regularly exit at AMS through e-gates with no immigration officer in the wee booth at the back. If totally biometric why would the gates be closed when staff is not available?
