I don't think we can say statistically whether it is safer than humans right now or not.

- madaxe_again 10y ago150,000,000 miles on autopilot, one fatality. Humans, it's 66,000,000 miles per fatality, in the US. Admittedly the sample is small, but still, it suggests an advantage over humans.

High end vehicles with comparable safety features on roads where autopilot is likely to be engaged is more comparable. I wouldn't be surprised if autopilot is safer, but I think it is overstating things to say this is a statistical fact.
