I wonder if Uber will ever offer a programmatic courier service. It seems like the "Uber for X" companies will struggle to make money if they have to maintain their own delivery fleet, and tapping into a large pool of Uber drivers could allow smaller companies to auto-scale their business just like with cloud compute.
uber's fleet should transport people. their food services are pretty awful as they try to get their drivers to actually deliver items. it's best that they stick to what they are good at.
