Uber proved it's possible to burn a lot of money on a team that is ineffective due to needless infighting and excessive internal competition.

It's R&D and depends on a lot of new innovation to be solved (new ASIC hardware for real-time inferencing, new ML model types -- potentially a new breakthrough even).

There are some things that money can accelerate and some things it can't. Building a balanced, effective team is not a clear linear function of money.

You need more of a targeted money laser than a money shotgun.
