    I would think airplanes - the accident rate per mile is far lower so there’s much less opportunity for failures, and airplane maintenance and use are much better regulated, making it easier to eliminate the autopilot as the cause if something does go wrong. For a long time after airlines start using full auto they will probably still have pilots in the cockpit for quite a while even if they don’t do anything.

      The reason plane accidents are less common is because the worst licensed pilot is more competent than the average licensed driver by a wide margin
