Why don't all cars have auto headlights anymore?

I remember a time in the early 2000s when every car on the road had auto headlights that come on at night and you can't turn off unless you're in park. Now I see newer cars driving around at night with no headlights on. How?? Why didn't they just leave them full auto? Clearly Americans are no longer smart enough to know when it's time to turn your headlights on.
