Then ask yourself if you would get on a plane without anyone flying it. The first one? Probably not. But going but a lot of comments here and else where, there are plenty of other people willing to be early adopters. People already do some pretty stupid shit with Tesla Autopilot. 5 years in with statistics to show? Yes, I would. Of course, that logic of removing pilots could be completely flawed based on the chance that the only reason the pilots failed at all was because they had to step in when the automated systems could not handle the situation.
