Uber

Uber is a company that is synonymous with a business model that has completely transformed our lives. The mobile app launched a revolution in the passenger transportation industry. The private taxi driver service aggregator became convenient for both drivers and passengers who could pay less while worrying less about their safety. These days, Uber is seriously focusing on developing autopilot systems. They had to stop testing their autonomous taxis after a fatality that happened when a car hit a cyclist. Later, the company got approval to continue testing. The company is also interested in creating a flying taxi together with NASA engineers.
