Uber CEO Redefines Corporate Innovation Through AI Empowerment

Uber’s Code-Driven Transformation

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi says the company should be understood less as a ride-hailing platform and more as a large technology system built and maintained by engineers. Speaking on The Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett, he described how software development remains central to Uber’s operations and long-term strategy.

Embracing AI As A Preparation Tool

Khosrowshahi explained that some internal teams use an AI tool informally referred to as “Dara AI” to simulate executive feedback during preparation meetings. The system allows teams to test presentations and refine arguments before final reviews. The approach reflects Uber’s broader focus on using AI to improve internal decision-making and workflow efficiency.

Engineering As The Architectural Backbone

According to Khosrowshahi, around 90% of Uber’s engineers are already using AI tools in their daily work, while roughly 30% are considered advanced users applying AI to redesign parts of the company’s infrastructure. The shift positions engineers not only as builders of existing systems but also as key drivers of future product and platform development.

Productivity Redefined

Khosrowshahi noted that AI adoption is significantly improving engineering productivity and accelerating development cycles. The company views these tools as a way to optimize processes rather than replace technical expertise.

Uber’s internal use of AI illustrates how large technology companies are integrating automation into core operations while reshaping how teams collaborate and ship products.
