Full Article

Tesla recently faced a setback as they lost a key AI engineer responsible for leading the 'planning, imitation learning & RL team for Tesla AI' amidst a larger trend of talent leaving the company. This departure comes in the wake of multiple rounds of layoffs that have been taking place within Tesla over the past few weeks. The company is experiencing a significant exodus of talent for various reasons, including low morale among employees.

The departing engineer, Paril Jain, had been with Tesla for 9 years and played a crucial role in the development of Tesla's autonomous driving technology. Jain's responsibilities included building foundational models for autonomy, leveraging driving data for self-driving systems, and researching cutting-edge techniques to enhance driving models' safety and comfort. Despite the talent loss, Jain expressed gratitude for his time at Tesla and highlighted the company's progress in self-driving technology.
