Why Uber has failed and what's next - interview with Paris Marx
The Uber Files revelations have let a thousand questions bloom about this Silicon Valley company that has broken all the rules, accumulated massive power over cities across the globe, but has never achieved a profit, and has so far failed in many of its stated ambitions to transform the transport sector for good.
To begin to piece together some answers, the Gig Economy Project spoke to Paris Marx, host of the popular ‘Tech Won’t Save Us’ podcast and author of new book ‘Road to Nowhere: What Silicon Valley Gets Wrong about the Future of Transportation’, published by Verso in July.
In this podcast, we discuss:
01:04: Key takeaways from the Uber Files and the reaction to it
12:15: Silicon Valley’s vision for transport and why it has failed
26:55: What changes should we make to the transport system?
34:28: What next for Uber?
