How regarding earning up to $65 an hour to drive a luxurious Tesla provided by Elon Musk’s company to make ends meet?
In the United States, Tesla paid motorists between $24 and $65 an hour this summer to help it sophisticate its autonomous driving.
In Quebec, a similar job offer is currently posted at Tesla Saint-Bruno, on the South Shore of Montreal.
“We are looking for a highly motivated individual to accelerate our vehicle-level testing for all current and future Autopilot features on the path to fully autonomous driving,” it reads.
It is mentioned that the candidate will have to analyze “test data, triage software problems and abnormal vehicle behavior using tools”.
Artificial intelligence
Last Friday, Tesla did not return our interview requests, but The newspaper was able to test autonomous driving with a former Quebec employee of Tesla, Gad Elmoznino, a great lover of the brand, first owner of the Model S delivered in Quebec, in 2012.
Au Journalthe latter said that Tesla has in recent months amassed data from car owners like him who have agreed to share their detailed navigation information so that it can improve its self-driving software guided by artificial intelligence.

“We want to see when the owner regains control of his car. When that happens, the car says, “You have stopped autonomous driving. What happened?”, explains Gad Elmoznino, vice-president of technology at Club Tesla Québec.
At this time, the driver can tell in a few words orally the incident and then send it to the engineers of the American manufacturer.
According to Gad Elmoznino, the fact that Tesla has reached this point probably means that their technology is very advanced and on the verge of being perfected.
Recently, the entrepreneur successfully made the round trip between Montreal and Quebec with autonomous driving, watching his steering wheel closely.

But to go further, Tesla needs to hire people with clean driving records to test the self-driving system.
“They’re going to put the car in tough situations repeatedly to see what they can do to improve the system. These are more controlled experiments”, emphasizes Gad Elmoznino.
“They provide the car with additional sensors. These are test vehicles with more specific and improved sensors,” he concludes.
