Disney Entertainment and Warner Bros. Discovery Announce Disney+, Hulu, Max Bundle

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) -The bundle is back.

In a package mirroring the traditional cable packages, a new bundle is combining three major streaming services.

Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery say Disney+, Max and Hulu will all be included in a bundle starting this summer.

Customers can choose between ad-supported and ad-free options, however, the companies have yet to announce how much they will cost.

“On the heels of the very successful launch of Hulu on Disney+, this new bundle with Max will offer subscribers even more choice and value,” said Joe Earley, President, Direct to Consumer, Disney Entertainment. “This incredible new partnership puts subscribers first, giving them access to blockbuster films, originals, and three massive libraries featuring the very best brands and entertainment in streaming today.”

The bundle will be available for purchase on any of the three streaming platform’s websites.

The offering is reminiscent of the traditional cable TV bundles that have been upended in recent years. Additional details regarding the bundle offer will be shared in the coming months.

First human brain implant malfunctioned, Neuralink says

The first brain chip implant malfunctioned just weeks after insertion. Neuralink revealed that a number of the chip’s connective threads retracted from Noland Arbaugh’s brain.

In a blog post, the company reported that it hindered the implant’s data speeds and effectiveness. In response, scientists were reportedly able to make the implant more sensitive to increase performance.

Arbaugh ,who has been a quadriplegic since 2016, had the chip implanted into the part of his brain that controls the ability to move in January 2024. Then about a month later, Musk touted Arbaugh’s ability to play online computer games, browse the internet, livestream and use other applications “all by controlling a cursor with his mind.”

While the problem doesn’t appear to pose a risk to Arbaugh’s safety, the idea of removing the implant has been floated around.
