I don't use Uber, but I have several friends who do. By and large the main comment I hear is that they appreciate knowing what the trip will cost before taking it. If taxi companies made that one change, they would take away the major reason my friends use Uber.
With the many technologies you'll want to employ (and some you haven't even conceived of yet) don't go hard wiring every room for what you think you'll need. Instead, run a 1 or 2 inch PVC pipe from the attic (or basement) into a square multi-use outlet on opposite walls in every room. Pop a blank plate over them and wait for the dust to settle.
My first house, I hardwired everything, (Cat3 (in the day), cable, speakers, phone, security) only to discover that we moved the entire entertainment center/computer room to a different room in the house and swapped the living-room and den.
My third house, I just ran PVC into outlets. After moving in, it was a simple matter of dropping wire where-ever I needed it, when I needed it (and it was a two-story).
Good luck and have fun!
