  • Tesla may advertise its impending Cybercab robotaxi fleet as a self-driving service, but new job listings indicate human workers may still be required to remotely drive the cars. As spotted on Wednesday by Gizmodo,

The article from Popular Science discusses Tesla's recent job posting for a "Vehicle Operator for Autonomy" role, which hints at the company's ongoing development of its robotaxi service. This job involves driving Tesla vehicles to collect data for improving autonomous driving technology, suggesting that Tesla is actively working on enhancing its Full Self-Driving (FSD) capabilities. The role requires candidates to have a clean driving record and experience with Tesla's Autopilot system, indicating a focus on real-world data collection to refine the AI's understanding of driving scenarios. This move aligns with Elon Musk's vision of a future where Tesla vehicles operate as autonomous taxis, potentially transforming urban transportation. However, the article also notes the challenges and regulatory hurdles Tesla faces in achieving full autonomy, including the need for extensive testing and validation of the technology.
