TYSON ENHANCES EFFORT TO PREVENT CRUELTY TESLA’S AUTOPILOT BOSS EXITS AFTER SIX MONTHS

Tyson Foods said Wednesday that it will open the video streams of its poultry farms to an outside company to validate that no animal cruelty is taking place. Cameras are already in action to monitor all 33 of the food giant’s poultry facilities across the U.S., but they haven’t been available for viewing by outsiders. Now, Arrowsight, a remote video auditing firm, will monitor each site’s eight to 15 cameras, which are on a several-minute delay, according to Tyson. The videoing chronicles the chickens’ arrival on trucks until right before they are slaughtered. Tyson started installing video cameras more than a decade ago to monitor animal handling in its plants. Tesla’s self-driving car software team is getting a new boss after the latest person in the job lasted only about six months. Chris Lattner, who joined Tesla from Apple in January, confirmed late Tuesday that he left the company. “Turns out that Tesla isn’t a good fit for me after all,” he said on Twitter. The circumstances surrounding his exit were not immediately clear. “Chris just wasn’t the right fit for Tesla, and we’ve decided to make a change,” Tesla said. Tesla has hired former OpenAI research scientist Andrej Karpathy as director of artificial intelligence and Autopilot vision. Tesla said Jim Keller will oversee Autopilot hardware and software.
