How much is autopilot on commercial flights today?

My friend that flys 737's for Alaska Airlines says that he hits that autopilot button 50 feet off of the ground on Take off and takes the controls back 50 feet over the ground on landing. I can't vouch for how accurate it is, but it would surprise me to be fairly accurate. I've heard the same from my local bus drivers.
