What Uber drivers think about their robot replacements: VICE News

VICE News

Published on Sep 22, 2016

Last week, Uber launched its self-driving car pilot program in Pittsburgh. Customers in certain parts of the city can now hail an Uber, with the chance that they'll be picked up by a self-driving car.

Though there's someone sitting in the driver's seat, the cars guide and drive themselves. And Uber has long felt bullish about its technology: CEO Travis Kalanick says the company's whole fleet could be "driverless in 2030."

The day that Uber launched its Pittsburgh program, VICE News took a ride with some of the drivers that Uber could put out of a job with its autonomous cars, to ask them whether they were concerned about sharing the road with the self-driving cars that will put them out of business.

INVESTMENT us - #JimCramer #NYSE #WallStreet Jim Cramer's Breaking Down Chevron, Anadarko, Etsy, Uber and Disney

Chevron Walks Away From Andadarko Chevron CVX said it won't increase its $50 billion takeover bid for independent drilling group Anadarko Petroleum APC , and will instead take the $1 billion break-up fee. Uber's Pricing Uber UBER is finally going public on Friday. Uber's debut is one of the tech sector's most highly anticipated, with its offering expected to raise as much as $9 billion and result in a potential valuation of $84 billion at the midpoint of its proposed target range of $44 to $50 a share.

Gross merchandise sales on the platform, the company said, rose 18.9% and passed the $1 billion mark for the first time. Disney's Earnings Disney DIS also posted earnings after the bell Wednesday. Adjusted earnings in the quarter were $1.61 a share, beating forecasts by 2 cents. Revenue of $14.92 billion beat analysts' estimates of $14.54 billion. Disney said revenue from its parks, experiences and consumer products business rose 4.5% to $6.17 billion, beating estimates of $6 billion. Movie-studio revenue in the quarter was $2.13 billion.

  Linkedin   

11 July 2022

London’s blue-chip index lost 76 points as it opened for the start of the week, down to 7,120. Concerns over further interest rate hikes from the US Federal Reserve have caused jitters in the market. Wizz Air said it expects a return to profit in the next quarter despite a “challenging macro and operational background.” The airline said revenue per available seat kilometre will continue to improve on the back of higher fares and growing load factors. Klarna is expected to announce it secured funding from existing investors and new backers which could include Canada's largest pension fund. At US$800m, the size of the funding round is larger than previously anticipated. Uber is at the centre of a major scandal after documents were leaked. It is alleged Uber lobbied officials to drop investigations, used a "kill switch'' to thwart law enforcement and considered exploiting violence against its drivers to gain public sympathy. Among the small caps, Thor Mining completed its drilling programme at its Ragged Range gold and nickel project in Pilbara. The drilling samples have been sent to a lab in South Australia, with assay results expected to return by September. OptiBiotix struck a commercial deal with one of the world leaders in flavourings and ingredients. Its deal with Firmenich will see the two companies develop new products containing OptiBiotix's SweetBiotix low-calorie alternative to sugar. Induction Healthcare said it signed an agreement System C Healthcare, which will sell Induction’s Zesty engagement platform. Zesty allows people to manage their hospital appointments, as well as view their letters and clinical records.

UK - Uber loses driver employment case: euronews Business

Published on Oct 28, 2016

Uber's business model has been dealt a major blow by a British employment tribunal.

Responding to a case brought by of its two drivers, with the backing of a trade union, the tribunal judges ruled the taxi app can no longer treat those drivers as self-employed.

That means it would have to pay them the minimum wage and offer paid holidays. The judges also said that working hours began from the moment most drivers logged into the app rather than just per ride.

This is just the latest setback …
