This is amazing. Ideally restaurants would just price using AMM curves. https://twitter.com/MorePerfectUS/status/1762251031910728069

Problem is they are only exploring the surge and not the reduction of prices in slow times. I want half-priced square hamburger meat.

In equilibrium it will have that same effect. From a PR perspective, of course they should have announced it as an off-peak discount and then when they need to raise prices blame it on inflation (Notice how no one gets upset at stores for doing "clearance sales" seemingly at least 50% of the time)

In the uber case, I was told that uber did not do it that way because the demographic they felt the most need to market to was the *drivers*, to whom surge prices are of course an exciting opportunity rather than an unexpected cost.

It makes so much sense for Uber, especially because there often aren't many alternatives if you're stuck somewhere physically + Uber can preview price hike on your phone. Fast Food has countless competitors in theory, and you won't know price until you walk in? Pretty bad customer experience.
