> No, Google is. I didn't say they were the biggest, but they are one of the big boys. They just opened a huge robotics facility in Pittsburgh and yoinked dozens of staff from CMU Robotics. They are betting big on automated transportation. > People will use whomever is the cheapest and meets their standard. Right. I will continue to use Uber/Lyft because it's cheaper/faster than regular cabs. Heck, I'd even pay a slight premium because it's so convenient. Have you even used regular taxis in a non-metropolis area? It sucks. Even with employee drivers, Uber will be fine.
