Headless Interfaces & Uber as Front End

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.

Plus: how to actually raise your Uber rating.
