Uber and Waymo Have Ended Their Robotaxi Tie-Up in Phoenix; Uber to Announce New Partner Uber Technologies Inc. said it has wound down its robotaxi offering with Alphabet Inc.’s Waymo in Phoenix, the latest relationship twist between two companies that simultaneously function as partners and competitors.
