The article is actually saying that Dara Khosrowshahi would like to talk to Alphabet about this matter, which is not surprising given how Uber's own project is going. There's no indication of enthusiasm for this on Alphabet's part, however.
- Fricken 8y agoI don't know why you were downvoted. Waymo has a partnership with Lyft that may or may not go anywhere. Waymo may decide that they don't need no stinking rideshare company to host their vehicles.
- heisenbit 8y agoI agree and even if these talks would be going on what are the chances that Alphabet would be happy for him to go to the press at this stage?
- mannykannot 8y agoGood point - maybe Alphabet already passed up on this opportunity, and the goal in this interview was to give the impression that Uber is doing something about its automation problem.
- jacksmith21006 8y agoReally Alphabet has the cards and will have to decide if want to give access to the Waymo cars or not. Did think Waymo more interested in the Android model versus the iPhone model.
