Uber will run out of money long before we have self-driving cars.

- ojosilva 9y agoJust call the "Human Uber" service instead, which will come with a pair of hands. I doubt that's more than 5% of their market, so it justifies having a differentiated price for the extra help you get.
- ryuker16 9y agoI can't see why they're can't be a uber human driver option or you can simply ask from a cart boy to help with groceries. Heck, with amazon groceries and other similar services, why do they even need to go to the store?
- tw04 9y agoThere have been services to help elderly people get their bags in and out of the car at the airport for literally decades. As for "at their home" - if you think that the cross section of elderly people who: Can't lift their bag into a car. Travel frequently. Have no friends or family to help. Have no neighbors to help. Don't live in assisted living. Is enough to sustain the industry, I think you're in for a rude awakening.
