I am not smart , but before the phoenix accident that statement may have some basis but after that the uber autonomous car is tainted to an extent couple that with theft of intellectual property from Alphabet autonomous trucking and the subsequent deal made, it is hard to argue Uber is going to lead the autonomous revolution when it happens. Their current moat is their driver network (one of the moats), once that is gone Waymo and Tesla can pretty much pull what Uber does.

Waymo/Alphabet/Tesla are one push notification to their apps away from building a driver network.
I've seen Waymo's cars driving around plenty of times in Arizona. The ones without a human safety driver are so rare I haven't seen one in person yet. If they were actually confident they were close to FSD they would have more cars without human safety drivers.
