Tesla advertised for teleoperation positions, saying the company needs the ability to "access and control" autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots remotely.

Zoox, a self-driving car company owned by Amazon, is deploying robot taxis without steering wheels, driver seats or drivers. But like all other self-driving cars, they still need help from humans.

Tesla AI’s Teleoperation team is charged with providing remote access to our robotaxis and humanoid robots. Our cars and robots operate autonomously in challenging environments.
