As someone who frequently drives windy roads at night(I live on one), please learn how. Auto high beams are rude, they only turn down once my lights are on you, if we’re going through a corner, thats close enough to put after-images on my retinas. Frankly, I think they are a safety hazard that should be illegal.

A human driver will see the headlights coming and turn their high-beams down preemptively.

Its doubly shitty because cars outfitted with auto high-beams typically have those high intensity lamps too. Ugh.

They are a safety hazard, and unless they consistently operate headlamps in accord with rhe applicable local law [0], using them already is illegal.

This is incredibly rude. Always turn off high beams.

They’ve never failed to turn off automatically when a car is coming in my experience. In fact, they turn off more reliably than if I was doing it myself.
