Both can handle concurrent writes.  auto-increment is nothing but serial or 
sequence cols and they can handle unique concurrent request.  That is why 
sometimes you may have gaps.UUID is not only unique, but is also unique across 
space. You can have two different databases generate UUID at the same time and 
it will still be unique. So that will help if you are consolidating different 
databases into one big data mart and they can all can go to the same table 
without conflict. With Sequence or Serial that will be a problem.Finally UUID 
results in write amplication in wal logs.  Keep that in mind if your app does 
lot of writes.
