Google is looking for pilots for unmanned vehicles

Google continues to test its automatic driving system for ro-mobilios, and has opened a vacancy for operators of Lexus cars moving independently through the streets. Operators will have to prepare detailed reports on the work of the manager of AI robots, as well as in the event of danger to take control.

It is assumed that the operators will work for 6-8 hours a day, five days a week, in groups of 2 people. One will be constantly behind the wheel, the second - in the passenger seat, making reports using a laptop. Among the requirements for applicants - excellent command of spoken and written language, and typing speed of at least 40 words per minute.

Vacancy is actual for residents of Arizona, promise to give out payment in the amount of $ 20 / hour. As the head of the robo mobiles department at Google, Brian Torcellini [Brian Torcellini], explains, pilots of romo mobiles play an important role in their creation, provide feedback for development engineers, and can take control in case of an emergency situation.

So far, the technology of automatic driving is in the process of development, and is not yet ready for autonomous work in any driving situation. The project involved already 34 prototypes of the electric car and 23 Lexus, turned into robo-mobiles, which in total have already driven 1.6 million miles in autonomous mode. The AI ​​has proven itself as a driver - so far the only accident due to his fault was a collision with a bus at a speed of 3 km / h at the moment when the mobile was trying to drive around an obstacle.

Google has been testing technology for robots since 2009. By 2012, she had reached a state where she could drive a car in semi-automatic mode on public roads. By this time, many US states have already passed new laws needed to regulate the use of romo mobiles. In the same year, Sergey Brin promised that autonomous cars could be bought as early as 2017. In 2014, the project director moved this date to 2020.
