Maybe Apple, Carnegie Mellon, etc.

What I do know is that Uber, a company with virtually no scruples, is very far down the list of company's that I would trust to develop their own self-driving technology. It makes total sense for them to use self-driving cars to replace human drivers, but I'd feel a lot better about this if they leased it from another company.

Uber basically does own the Carnegie Mellon CS department, they hired up most of the faculty a few years back.
