Wait till it kills a pax during a trip. It will also attract many to jump infront of it in hopes of squeezing millions out of uber.

Self cleaning restrooms have already been invented.

Merge the 2 concepts and you have a self driving uber restroom.

When machines can do all of the work,what do you imagine they will do with all of the surplus people ?

This is what they will do:

 

[Buckiemohawk]

people will make the cars crash

Uber's Pittsburgh fleet, which will be supervised by humans in the driver's seat for the time being,

This is really all you need to focus on. They will always be paired with humans. So basically they paid for all of this technology but you will still be paying the driver his rate. Until you remove the driver, which, as I've said many times now, will always be the case, they are basically throwing away money.

Right now, they got below market equilibrium rates combined with money losing/revenue reducing UberPool, while throwing money away at this Utopian driverless car theory, throwing away money offering free rides. And the investors never wonder what happened to the $16 billion dollars Travis has managed to blow through in Uber's 7 year history.

Great job, Travis

You guys need to keep in mind, they aren't self driving if they aren't self driving.

I hope the first driverless car will be referred to as "Hal," and the first driverless attendant shall be named "Dave."

"Open the Prius Back Doors Hal..."

I just love that uber is nickel and diming the drivers with less and less money while throwing billions at this endeavor. Get rid of over a million drivers? I see an uprising akin to what would happen if the government tried to take away our guns. Black masked ex uber drivers sabotaging the driverless cars world wide. You will never catch me taking a ride in a driverless car, there are far too many variables that require human reasoning to safely navigate through busy city traffic.

They are using VOLVO S.U.V.'S.

Excellent choice for black market parts !

I'm curious, what happens to the dmv and insurance companies if people no longer drive. If a human is not driving who bears the responsibility when the machine malfunctions and crashes? Loss of billions in revenue will see the insurance companies fighting this tooth and nail. The dmv will lose too...no need to license people anymore.

Would you like a certificate of salvage ,or a regular title with that ?

Do you have a choice of serial numbers ?

La plaqua,
must have la plaqua to export on barge & avoid import tax.

Whoever the vehicle is registered to is responsible.

They will end up being self driving "Bordellos".

Not exactly money-throwing.

First mover in a technology will quickly acquire so many patents and processes that, the revenue stream coming from others implementing them might suppress your wildest imagination. Google, after all, was just a search algorithm when it started. Look how far they took it and how many new businesses they got into.

For example , Microsoft makes more money from each android phone than google which owns the android operating system.

In a self driving uber car, driver's role will be expected to change: entitled pax will expect foot massage to make sure driver is doing something to earn the $2.40 fare.
