test vehicle over the weekend. While there is no shortage of in-the-works autonomous cars

out there, Argo AI is one to watch here. The company is also working with Ford on a self-driving

initiative for Lyft, with Argo AI's valuation set to have cracked 12 billion dollars back in July.

Some bad news, Hulu is bumping up the price of its on-demand plans.

Expect the price hike to go live on October 8th of this year and apply to both existing and new subscribers.
