Seems like a win-win for all involved. Uber can devote many more times the investment than the Feds are making. CMU and its people get to focus on the technologies, not writing grants. And CMU likely gets royalties for previous inventions. Plus the city of Pittsburgh will be showcased with 21st century tech. And DARPA helped launch the whole industry. Pretty amazing history when it's widespread. Might be a 15 year trend from first Grand Challenge to widespread acceptance.
