When does $\operatorname{Aut}(X)=\operatorname{Bir}(X)$ hold?

Let $X$ be a projective complex manifold. Under what condition do we have the equality $\operatorname{Aut}(X)=\operatorname{Bir}(X)$? Here $\operatorname{Aut}(X)$ denotes the group of holomorphic automorphisms of $X$ and $\operatorname{Bir}(X)$ the group of birational morphisms of $X$.

I am interested in the case when $\dim_{\mathbb{C}}X=2,3$. Maybe there are not universal criteria, so I would appreciate your providing me with any examples for which the equality holds.
