If you’ve been thinking about getting MLS Season Pass but didn’t want to pay the (pretty reasonable) annual subscription fee, that argument just got a little weaker. Apple has dropped the price for the remainder of the season to $69, down from $99. And if you also subscribe to Apple TV+ (which is where Apple streams its exclusives, like Severance, Ted Lasso, and Foundation), you can get the rest of the season for just $59.

In addition to being the place to watch every MLS game without any blackouts, MLS Season Pass also gets you the

MLS 360 live whiparound show — in English and Spanish. You’ll also get pre- and post-match coverage and analysis, highlights, player profiles, and you can follow your favorite clubs for more stats and standings. And you also can opt to listen to the matches with audio from the clubs’ radio announcers.

MLS Season Pass also gets you access to the MLS NEXT Pro and MLS NEXT developmental leagues.

And, yes, it’ll get you pretty much every touch from Lionel Messi as he continues his run with Inter Miami.

As an added sweetener, every game May 4-5 on MLS Season pass will be available to everyone with or without a subscription, so you basically can try before you buy, in time for Rivalry Week (which runs May 11-18), and the second-annual Leagues Cup tournament against Liga MX this summer.

Going into this weekend’s matches, Miami leads the Eastern Conference with 21 points. Real Salt Lake and LA Galaxy are atop the Western Conference with 18 points each. Messi and Miami take on the New York Red Bulls at 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. Salt Lake plays Kansas City at 9:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. And LA Galaxy take on Seattle at 6:45 p.m. ET on Sunday.

MLS Season Pass is available in the Apple TV app, which is available on Apple hardware, from iPhones and iPads, to Macs, and of course on Apple TV 4K. It’s also available in a web browser.

I’m already surrounded by AI. I don’t need ChatGPT living beside my bed
No, OpenAI. I don’t want your ChatGPT speaker.

AI is all around us now. From your phone to home appliances, it practically sits everywhere--and it might just get a lot more intimate. A recent report claims OpenAI and Jony Ive are working on a small, screenless AI speaker shaped somewhat like a doughnut. It could be battery-powered, portable enough to carry around the house, and packed with microphones, cameras, sensors, speakers, lights, and even moving parts.

It sounds like someone finally decided the Amazon Echo needed eyes and a personality. And not to be too negative, the idea of a "ChatGPT"-powered hardware really doesn't sound so great.

For months, reports have suggested that OpenAI’s first hardware product would be a screen-free smart speaker designed to act more like an AI companion. We already knew it could understand its surroundings, be carried around the home, and proactively help users. A new Bloomberg report now gives us a clearer picture of what the device may actually look like.

As per the report, OpenAI’s first gadget will be shaped like a doughnut and measure about the same size as a hockey puck. You will be able to carry it between rooms or leave it nearby on whatever surface is convenient. The device is expected to be on the expensive side, as the company has pondered pricing it around $300 to $400. A release is currently planned for 2027.
