Tesla wants you to believe in its self-driving tech, but even its own AI trainers won’t trust it

Reuters reported Tesla workers saw frequent unsafe driving behavior during Full Self-Driving training, and former labelers said they would not trust the system.

The report said Tesla’s safety comparisons were criticized as misleading, raising fresh questions about the company’s autonomy claims.

Tesla’s robotaxi rollout in Austin was described as tightly controlled, with pre-mapping, annotation, and only a small fleet operating.

The findings could increase scrutiny of Tesla’s self-driving strategy, safety messaging, and regulatory claims.
