Besides, planes take off and land by themselves every day.
Are you sure, I thought that's when autopilot was removed; for take-off and landing?

Quite. They've been doing it for decades. They just don't talk a lot about it for obvious reasons.

Autoland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The US Air Force just landed an unmaned and unguided (computer control) fighter on an air craft carrier.

Edit: In fact I would bet its use will become more and more widespread, outside of bad weather primarily today, since with it you 'could' fly planes closer together.
