BET HN: In 5 Years Uber Will Be Using Self Driving Cars from Tesla

1 pointmrharrison1 comment

Uber and Tesla are both so aggressive, that I bet in five years Uber will be using self driving cars from Tesla.

Who wants to take me up on this bet?

I will. Even assuming Tesla has a street-legal self-driving car (that works outside the interstate), owning and operating cars ($70-80,000 a piece) is a pretty big change in Uber's business model. That's not a unicorn business model, it's a pack mule business model.
