Tesla calls its automated driving system Autopilot. Introduced in 2015, the system included such advanced features as allowing drivers to change lanes by tapping a turn signal and parallel parking on command. To make the system work, Tesla initially installed sonar sensors, radar and a single front-facing camera at the top of the windshield. A subsequent version, introduced in 2016, included eight cameras all around the car to collect more data and offer more capabilities.
Tesla initially outsourced data labeling to a San Francisco-based non-profit then known as Samasource, people familiar with the matter told Reuters. The organization had an office in Nairobi, Kenya, and specialized in offering training and employment opportunities to disadvantaged women and youth. A former Tesla employee said of the Samasource labelers: “They would highlight fire hydrants as pedestrians … They would miss objects all the time. Their skill level to draw boxes was very low.”Tesla decided to bring data labeling in-house. “Over time, we’ve grown to more than a 1,000-person data labeling that is full of professional labelers who are working very closely with the engineers,” Karpathy said in his August 2021 presentation.
As an example, this person recalled seeing “embarrassing objects,” such as “certain pieces of laundry, certain sexual wellness items … and just private scenes of life that we really were privy to because the car was charging.”Tesla staffed its San Mateo office with mostly young workers, in their 20s and early 30s, who brought with them a culture that prized entertaining memes and viral online content.
“If you saw something cool that would get a reaction, you post it, right, and then later, on break, people would come up to you and say, ‘Oh, I saw what you posted. That was funny,’” said this former labeler. “People who got promoted to lead positions shared a lot of these funny items and gained notoriety for being funny.”
deeply worrying
Just a little company culture problem, it'll be solved in the next OTA update.
Very hesitant about buying Tesla. I'm afraid if Elon goes down, he is going to take this company with him.
Now do the NSA. Oh wait, they own you.
Ring, Google, anything manufactured in China... if the video packet can reach the cloud, some creep somewhere's going to perv to it.

Tesla Cuts Prices of All Models for the Second Time This Year ... CEO elonmusk has said he’s willing to sacrifice Tesla’s profitability. Never, ever a good sign.
I can’t for the life of me understand why anyone would purchase a Tesla at this point.
On par with elonmusk and his douchiness.
I doubt this is only a Tesla issue
I'm sensing a ban in your future.
How long until Tesla drivers have to pay for “Tesla Blue”?
Musk has a credibility problem. He said he could solve the problem of transportation’s impact on the environment. So he produced a car many working people can’t afford to own let alone repair.But, it certainly was a profit maker for him. Who do you trust
It’s run by Musk, so basically it’s all lies.
Man, all of a sudden, pure hate on elonmusk …. Why because he bought twitter. Did you hate JeffBezos when he bought washpo Would you rather Americans buy a foreign company’s electric cars?
I remember the days in the back seat of an automobile, and the only eyes were the people in the car next to ya. The good ole days. 😁
Another example of a company that has little in the way of either self control of internal governance! With every day that passes,.. I pat myself on the back for NOT buying a Tesla!
if people realized how much they was recorded a day they would love in the woods by themself cause camera everywhere there voice activated stuff everywhere unless you hiding in a whole in some proxy/vpn world you are recorded on almost everything you do
Wow. How isn’t this a much bigger story? I mean, this would be everything Americans are against, especially the MAGA people!
Why is Elon Musk so bad at this? Why can’t the Elon Musk cult admit he’s bad at this?
Unacceptable!
And we are worried about Tik Tok! GTFOOH!💩😡
OK, now do the U.S. government from 2016 - 2020. You pathetic Marxist narrative propagandists.
Need photos …
Care to chime in, elonmusk?
“seven former employees told Reuters the computer program they used at work could show the location of recordings — which potentially could reveal where a Tesla owner lived.” This is the entirety of the allegations.
If this is true?
We get it, National Bullshit Company News, you want to take out Elon Musk.
And who wouldn’t trust Elon Musk without reservations !
legacymedia and the deepstate will no stop coming after elonmusk. ElonMusk tesla
