Uber’s Dara on AI and Everything Apps

As Uber expands, can AI truly replace humans – or just their jobs?

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi is transforming the ride-sharing giant into a travel platform. He discusses partnerships with Expedia, expanding services within the app, and the increasing role of artificial intelligence in his company's future.


The interview delves into how Uber is integrating hotel bookings through its app and whether AI chatbots will one day handle all user interactions. Khosrowshahi also reflects on the challenges of balancing risk-taking with financial responsibility as a public company.


He discusses the impact of autonomous vehicle investments, like the recent purchase of Rivian, and how these technologies could shape Uber’s future. The conversation touches on the broader implications for employment, particularly among drivers, in an age where technology increasingly plays a central role.


Khosrowshahi reveals personal insights into his own approach to decision-making, emphasizing the importance of taking calculated risks to stay competitive in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.
