Dara Khosrowshahi’s Full Circle Launch: Expedia x Uber youtu.be/AK4hrrlCNUA?si… via @YouTube Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi joins Sourcery for a walkthrough of Uber’s newest product launches and the future of transportation, AI, delivery, travel, and autonomous vehicles. At Uber’s Go-Get showcase in New York City, Dara breaks down how Uber is evolving from a rideshare company into a global “go anywhere, get anything” platform. We discuss Uber’s new Expedia hotel partnership, AI-powered shopping agents, Uber’s autonomous vehicle strategy with Waymo, Zoox and Joby Aviation, and how AI is fundamentally changing the company’s operations and engineering culture. Dara also reflects on leading Uber through one of the largest corporate turnarounds in tech history, scaling the company from billions in losses to nearly $10B in free cash flow.

Today, Lucid announced a significant expansion of its partnership with @Uber, alongside an additional investment from Ayar Third Investment Company, an affiliate of the Public Investment Fund (PIF) and a public offering. Uber will increase its commitment to at least 35,000 Lucid vehicles for its future global robotaxi service, including our future Lucid Midsize vehicles and the award-winning Lucid Gravity. Additionally, the company is expected to raise more than $1 billion to support our next phase of growth through a new investment of $550 million from the PIF, $300 million through a public offering, and an additional investment of $200 million from Uber. Together, these investments enhance Lucid’s capital position as the company advances its best-in-class software-defined vehicles and diversified enterprise platform strategy. More to come as we prepare for commercial launch of the next-generation robotaxi service later this year in the San Francisco Bay Area with our partners from Uber and @nuro . media.lucidmotors.com/article?id=7r1…

Meet the fleet! Now almost 100 vehicles strong, our Robotaxi Engineering Fleet is gathering diverse real-world data and testing autonomous driving in multiple U.S. cities and states ahead of the launch of our autonomous ride-hail service. This is what responsible and scalable autonomy deployment looks like. Driven by Nuro, built by @LucidMotors, available exclusively on @Uber. #DrivenByNuro #SelfDriving #AutonomousVehicles
