Uber wants to be able to tell you when you've had too many drinks.

A patent application shows Uber is working on using artificial intelligence to identify intoxicated users to better tailor ride options.

Drivers may be warned about the sobriety of their passengers.

As for riders, they may not be able to opt for shared rides if they're too inebriated.
