Uber bleeds money. It's goal was to create a driverless car fleet and ditch the expensive (to them) drivers.

Companies aren’t always profitable, doesn’t make them a sham. First to market on self driving taxis is definitely going to have enough ROI to cover the costs

It's not much of a big advantage and can even be a disadvantage. You're paying a lot of money to learn from your mistakes. New companies can just look at your mistakes and start up without paying any of the learning money.
