I'm increasingly coming to believe that Uber won't win the driverless car taxi battle. They don't have the expertise in vehicle technology and Google is increasingly beginning to signal that they don't want to hand over the spoils of what they have to Uber. (It's possibly why Uber just acquired a huge division of Microsoft's Bing mapping team recently -- I suspect they're beginning to think that their reliance on Google Maps API is a liability.)
In my opinion Uber's most realistic and promising direction is towards doubling down on delivery and logistics. E.g. Uber Eats (which is already amazing) and Uber Package delivery.
