Uber's robotaxi deal with Lucid and Nuro isn't worrying gig worker drivers. Here's why they don't think driverless cars will replace humans.

EV maker Lucid is partnering with Uber and self-driving car startup Nuro to deploy thousands of autonomous robotaxis over the next six years.

Lucid received an unexpected lifeline from Uber, which intends to use "20,000 or more" Gravity SUVs as robotaxis in a three-way deal with Nuro. The latter will provide the autonomous driving software and the hardware suite required for driverless operation.
