Tesla's driver-assist software relies on a small army of data annotators who review thousands of hours of footage from Tesla owners and the company's in-house test drivers. The annotators gradually teach the company's AI how to behave like a human driver, one 30-second clip at a time.
Sometimes it can get monotonous. You could spend eight hours a day for months on end just labeling lane lines and curbs across thousands of videos.
The clips can provide a unique window into Tesla drivers' everyday lives. At one point, there was a project that required workers to label data taken from inside some owners' garages via Tesla's Sentry Mode feature.
Another project, called 'Selfie,' required some annotators to label data taken from Tesla's in-cabin cameras, according to two workers who witnessed it.
