The irony is that Airbnb and Uber were created to try and make use of spare capacity i.e. Spare rooms, floor space, extra passenger spots in people's cars.
Instead, it created an economy where people increased the amount of housing they had or bought cars dedicated to driving Uber. This seems like a hard problem to solve.
