Uber thought they were going to 1. undercut taxi drivers pay, then 2. be in prime position to get rid of drivers when one of their mates in silicon valley solved driverless cars.

That didn't happen so they are forced to be a taxi company dealing with unionised staff and local regulations and shite. Long may they have the real world to deal with, mired in anti-tech administration of human beings while their mates have moved on to undercutting white collar office workers en-masse with large language models as unsuited to the task as their crap self driving cars were unsuited to getting rid of drivers.
