Comment on Uber CEO Says He’d Buy 500k Self-Driving Cars From Tesla Motors

Comments

Uber has been investing heavily themselves in self-driving cars. They know that Tesla won't have a product available to buy in 2020.

And here's the source quote:

"Jurvetson said Uber CEO Travis Kalanick told him that if Tesla cars are autonomous by 2020, Kalanick wants to buy all 500,000 that are expected to be produced."

He also told him, seemingly apropos of nothing, that "if [his] grandmother had balls, she'd be [his] grandfather." Unfortunately the meaning of this exchange was apparently lost on the journalist.
