Uber’s AI Assistant: Helpful Tool or Trap?

Uber’s new AI Assistant is here—but is it actually helping drivers earn more, or just steering them where Uber needs coverage?

In this video, Sergio and Chris break down what the AI Assistant really shows inside the app, how it presents demand, airport activity, and busy areas, and where drivers need to be careful. They walk through real examples, explain what the tool does well, and point out where blindly following it can hurt your strategy.

You’ll learn why AI can be useful for planning and awareness, why it’s not a replacement for driver experience, and how relying too much on “where to drive” suggestions can quietly work against your profit. This is a practical, honest look at using Uber’s AI as a tool—not a boss.

If you want to drive smarter, protect your earnings, and understand how these new tools really work before trusting them, this is a video you don’t want to miss.
