I have driven a car with lane keep assist and hated it. If I'm getting close to the edge of a lane, it's intentional and often for safety; having the car try to interfere with that is counter-productive. I wouldn't call it comparable to Tesla's autopilot though, as it only intervened in steering when you neared the edge of the lane. I guess you could just let it pinball down the road like that, but I wouldn't want to attempt it. Maybe other cars do it better. Adaptive cruise on the other hand is great, but all modern cars have that. The real issue though is that it's harder to remain alert when the car is effectively doing everything for you... until it doesn't.

All lane keep assists are not the same. Tesla’s version drives through curves with ease, not like others which flop around one lane marker to other and may give up pretty easily

Infiniti’s lane assist doesn’t ping pong nearly as much as others. Newer cars have lane centering now which keeps you in the middle of the lane. Some manufacturers have done the Tesla thing and mapped out public roads like GM SuperCruise Also don’t let the car ping pong, if it loses the lane marking then the car will keep on lane changing with impunity
