Listen Later

Uber Freight is leveraging generative AI to take out supply-chain inefficiencies, lower costs, reduce fraud and drive better customer experiences. The company cut empty miles in half for carriers on its network, and last year saved customers $1.5 billion. Technology has been the cornerstone. In this Talking Transports podcast, Lior Ron, Uber Freight’s founder and CEO, joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation and logistics analyst, to share his insights about how technology will be transforming supply chains. Technology advances will also play a big part in the pace of autonomous-trucking development and commercialization. Ron also discusses growth in Mexico, fighting fraud, rate expectations, reinvesting in the business and how he found he way to transportation from big tech.
