Kalanick said that self-driving was “existential” to the company.
But in context, he didn’t mean Uber needed self-driving to exist. He meant Uber can’t be left out if self-driving becomes a reality.
In that sense, the sale seems pessimistic. They no longer see self-driving on the horizon, or they aren’t on track to deliver the technology themselves.
