Oxymoron: a figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous,seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in “cruel kindness” or “tomake haste slowly.”

So you see, an oxymoron can make sense, it’s just SEEMINGLY contradictory. It’s kind of like irony.

Kicking a blind man in the eye isn’t really contradicting. xD

auto is referring to automatic, pilot is referring to the act of piloting, not the noun pilot. So it is just saying it is automatically directed. Therefore, not an oxymoron.
