Humans aren't designed to monitor something that requires no action for a long time and then suddenly requires attention, nor are we good at taking over control of something at the last moment. You're not in the "flow" at that point.
The article is correct that expecting average drivers to do this without training is a high risk move. I've given flight instruction, taking over a landing 20ft off the ground is way harder than landing a plane yourself. And that's with a lot of training, not just an average driver being put in a place to supervise Tesla autopilot with no training at all.
