Once it happens that Apple hires a person from the automotive industry, it may just be a coincidence. But when they hire hundreds of them, then it's obvious that the company is on to something. And by all accounts, she should really be working on her own car, which can hit the roads as early as 2020 and will be among the electric cars similar to the one produced by Tesla. And it was from Tesla that in the last few months it went to Applu suspiciously large number of jobsancand today it was found that Apple hired one of Tesla's former engineers. It's Jamie Carlson and his role at Tesla was interesting to all, because he worked on the autopilot program - and it is speculated that the car from Applu will have the ability to drive alone.

Carlson does not provide any specific details on his LinkedIn profile, as the website only says that he works at Appli, in the special projects department. This department works on projects that are supposed to be kept secret, but in the case of Project Titan, it seems that Apple he cannot adequately conceal that he is working on it. Only recently, information appeared, according to which Apple was looking for a test track where he could test his vehicle prototypes. He is particularly interested in the test track in California. Carlson is one of seven new team members working on Project Titan. Among the most notable additions are Megan McClain, who worked on automated driving at VW, as well as Paul Frugal, who was deputy director of the Autonomous Systems Laboratory at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.
