Ours is the era of inadequate AI alignment theory. Any other facts about this era are relatively unimportant, but sometimes I tweet about them anyway.

    Tipping makes Uber drivers better off because every time somebody tips them a dollar, they get another dollar. Agree/disagree?

        Depends on whether Uber increases their cut to balance driver supply/demand, obviously.

        As opposed to what, there being more driver-hours sold than hours bought? A supply-demand-equilibrating price isn't exactly optional.

        Couldn't Uber just pay more but prevent them from driving more by not giving them passengers past some point? Not that it would, but could?

        "Not sure, life is complex" should be an option for most polls/surveys

        Tipping is stupid but if uber allowed it I would feel obligated to tip. And then full of anxiety over how much.

        Simply tip your driver of you want to (i am talking about a cash tip) £1 £2 whatever you want it all adds up for the driver.

        Depends on whether cost of avg. ride (tip included) goes up or down.

        Companies can pull off paying people less if tips are normalized. Then people start relying on tips. Instead of being a supererogatory bonus

        It seems like probably the hassle of normalizing tipping will reduce Uber usage overall, but god knows how those trends balance irl.
