In 2023, Uber has become a global powerhouse. It’s available in numerous countries around the world. Competitors such as FreeNow, Lyft, etc., still have quite a long way to go before catching up to Uber.
Nevertheless, as time passes, Uber is constantly seeking out ways to grow and evolve. This is critical in today’s world, which has become so fast-paced, reactive, and imbued with technology.
Breaking developments now confirm that the market can likely expect to see the famous rideshare app teaming up with artificial intelligence (AI) in the near future.
A closer look at the coming collaboration between Uber and AI
In real time, Uber is going through a critical patent acquisition process.
This patent would allow Uber to make use of AI that helps drivers and riders match with greater ease and based on more specific criteria. Right now, the matching of Uber drivers and riders remains largely driven by their proximity to one another in any given community.
Meanwhile, if Uber’s patent goes through as planned, then AI would facilitate matchings based on more interpersonal details of users, such as their individual patterns. Likewise, bringing AI into the fold of Uber may also help reduce annoying waiting periods.
