You're partially right: automation is coming but it's still a generation or two before it's fully implemented. The infrastructure just isn't in place and there are still so many variables the AI can't plan for.

I believe it depend on your region. Here in Washington DC drivers make a lot of money doing it full time. The infrastructure is to curvy, old and complicated for autonomous anytime soon. But I do agree, you make as much money you can, and invest in other opportunities that present itself, such as buying a refurbished or foreclose home then rented out. But definitely have a main job and this become a second part time or main job, because many drivers are getting deactivated without explanation, and you still want income coming in. Or work like a dog, save your money

Uber has become almost criminal in Puerto Rico. It is just so bad that I don't drive that much anymore. The long pickup for shit pay has destroyed Uber here, AR is always below 50% when it was over 90% before and there are significantly less drivers at night so people want us to squeeze 6 people in an X, I just had to cancel a $31 request because of that.
