What was said

"I spoke to Dara, the CEO of Uber, and when I asked him the question, what will those 9.4 million people do? And his response to me, the direct quote is he said, I don't know, which is pretty shocking."

Steven Bartlett revealed that Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi confirmed the company will automate its 9.4 million driver jobs with autonomous vehicles but admitted he has no answer for what those workers will do afterward. Bartlett noted Khosrowshahi privately acknowledged tech executives are not being transparent about AI's coming job displacement.
