I think we need to make peace with the word innovation sometimes. Innovation should be realistic in the right timing. Surely autonomous car is a really interesting future, but Uber has plenty of organizational problems require urgent and decisive surgery.
Abandon the auto project and UberEats (I don't even know if UberEats is even profitable or how many people actually use it) will allow the company to focus on core problems. How can you clean your house if your kids constantly go around the house making a mess? Let's get the house cleaned first then we worry about how to correct the kids' behaviors. Basically, do one thing well enough before moving to another.
They really need to focus on growing in cities and countries where they face competitions but already have a strong root. I understand the awesomeness to be the bigges, but look at Uber China, Uber had to parnter with Di Di instead (Uber doesn't run its business in mainland China anymore). Uber also recently shut down its business in Marcu because the drivers were fined so much no one would work for Uber.
