Safety and remote drivers are a huge barrier to achieving this. As is legal liability for accidents. Uber sidesteps this issue completely since it is the driver's responsibility.
Word is that Robotaxi is crashing at a higher rate than human drivers in Austin --- even with safety drivers.

But I am curious what the end-to-end math looks like for all costs incurred in Cybercab rideshare services, maintenance, insurance, repairs, and so forth, and how that calculates out per mile. And of course the volume of rideshares, given the tepid pace most Tesla announcements come to fruition and scale.
The Model 3 / Y scaled better than many predicted, but since then, other promises have gone the other way.
