Adaptive cruise control definitely requires less attention than traditional cruise control. Where's the alarm when a car equipped with adaptive cruise control gets in a collision? Same deal with lane assist. And autopilot is basically just adaptive cruise control with lane assist.
Over the last 6 years, there's been 16 collisions, one of them fatal. How many of those accidents would have still happened if people were using adaptive cruise control instead of Autopilot? How many were averted because autopilot is more sophisticated than traditional cruise control. Jumping straight to the conclusion that all of these collisions were due to autopilot, and not considering the fact that it might have been the same or even better than the status quo is naive.
