After Yatskov proved incapable of doing his job, company engineers discovered that he was taking confidential information from work devices and accounts, accessing it via his personal devices and putting confidential details about the supercomputer - nicknamed Dojo and used for projects such as autonomous driving - onto his personal computer, the suit claimed. — AFP
Tesla has sued a former employee for allegedly stealing confidential information and trying to cover his tracks when confronted.
The company led by CEO Elon Musk hired Alexander Yatskov as a thermal engineer in January to work on cooling technology for the electric car maker’s artificial intelligence supercomputer, but it soon became apparent he was not up to the job, according to a lawsuit Tesla filed against him.
