But, the statistics say that the technology fails less that the pilots.
The last few major accidents, eg Lion Air B738 undershoot in Bali and the Asiana B777 undershoot in SFO was not a case of the technology failing, but a case of poor flying skills/airmanship. Two perfectly working aircraft, flown in to the ground (sea in the case of Lion) due to a lack of the basics of flying an aircraft.
