If it's anything like the original Autopilot was: yes.

I had one of the first Model S vehicles that was autopilot-capable. Early enough that autopilot itself was added later. The early versions were... intense. Not just in the "if you take your hands of the wheel it might try to kill you" intense, but also in the "even using this as adaptive cruise with lane-keeping, sometimes it will suddenly try to veer off the road and murder you" sense. Even when working "as intended" it would routinely dip into exit ramps if you were in the right lane. As a result, I didn't use it all that often, but over not a lot of time it improved pretty dramatically.

At this point my wife and I are on newer Model 3s, and our experience with autopilot (not FSD) as a frequently-used driver assist has been... uneventful? Given the _original_ autopilot experience, though, neither of us is particularly eager to try out FSD yet. Autopilot strikes a good balance for us in terms of being a useful second pair of eyes and hands while unambiguously requiring us to drive the damn car.
