SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Former Uber CEO Travis Kalanick was confronted Wednesday in court with old texts that suggested he was willing to go to any length to surpass a Google self-driving car project. Kalanick was on the witness stand for a second day to answer allegations that he teamed up with former Google engineer Anthony Levandowski to rip off self-driving car technology now owned by Waymo, a Google spinoff. In one February 2016 text, Kalanick agreed with a comment by Levandowski that "second place is first looser (sic)." Another text included a link to a video clip from the 1987 movie "Wall Street" that is popularly known as the "Greed is good" speech.
