TL;DR Summary

Tesla employees privately shared invasive videos and images recorded by customers’ car cameras, including embarrassing situations, crashes, and road-rage incidents, according to interviews with nine former employees. Some recordings were made when cars were parked and turned off, potentially revealing where a Tesla owner lived. The sharing of sensitive videos illustrates one of the less-noted features of artificial intelligence systems: they often require armies of human beings to help train machines to learn automated tasks such as driving. Tesla increasingly has been automating the process, but it continues to employ hundreds of data labelers in Buffalo, New York.
