So I have a Ford so it’s not quite the same, but broadly the hands free and the lane centering will do only pretty boring stuff. So on a freeway even with hands free I keep my hands on in the wheel (don’t quite trust it, and my hands need to be somewhere anyway), but my arms are not tense as often.
With more risky intersections, it’s pretty much like driving without but still my hands are controlling against pretty much the direction the road instead of having to correct against the current direction of the car.
My first few cars the cruise control was rarely useful. Then I had adaptive cruise control which made things nicer. Now my arms are not in tension as much, which is nicer yet.
I don’t know about actually trusting the system when dealing with cross streets and signal lights, but the most tedious parts of driving are far less constantly taxing
