Autonomous operations are already a reality to space & back. The more expensive single & multi engine private aircraft can now land themselves just with the push of a button. Redundancy is getting so good that it can’t be ignored.

The 747-400 overrun into Halifax, a while back, would never have occurred had the captain chosen to utilize the auto land 3 capability of the aircraft when it commenced an ILS approach to a shorter runway.
