I can't understand how anyone is even able to let the car do something on its own. I drive old Dacia Logan and Renault Scénic, but at work we have Škoda Karoq and I can't even fully trust its beeping backing sensors or automatic handbrake. I can't imagine if the car steered, accelerated or braked without me telling it to.

Aviation is now mostly full automatic. On the otehr hand, there are tons of beacons to help it.

There's less stuff to hit in the air.

No it's not at all, there's still a ton of work for the pilot and first officer despite autopilot
