 SPACEX STARSHIP SPIRALS OUT OF CONTROL IN SECOND STRAIGHT TEST FLIGHT
FAILURE (3 MINUTE READ) [7] 

 SpaceX's Starship spiraled out of control while in space during a
test on Thursday - this is the second launch in a row that the vehicle
has run into a fatal problem on its way to orbit. Flights into major
Florida airports were briefly halted. The booster was successfully
caught for the third time by the launch tower. SpaceX had made
improvements to the lines that send fuel to Starship's engines,
changed the temperature of the propellent, and added extra vents and a
purge system ahead of the recent test flight. 

 CHATGPT ON MACOS CAN NOW DIRECTLY EDIT CODE (2 MINUTE READ) [12] 

 The newest version of OpenAI's ChatGPT app for macOS can edit code in
supported developer tools, including Xcode, VS Code, and JetBrains.
Users can turn on an 'auto-apply' mode to allow ChatGPT to make edits
without the need for additional clicks. The feature is available to
ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Team subscribers. It will roll out to
Enterprise, Edu, and free users next week. The ChatGPT app for Windows
will get direct editing soon. 

 A QUARTER OF STARTUPS IN YC'S CURRENT COHORT HAVE CODEBASES THAT ARE
ALMOST ENTIRELY AI-GENERATED (3 MINUTE READ) [13] 

 While each of the founders that Y Combinator funded in its current
cohort is highly technical and completely capable of building their
own products from scratch, a quarter of the startups have 95% of their
code bases generated by AI. Product builders who rely heavily on AI
will need to be good at reading code and finding bugs. VCs and
developers have been excited about AI-powered coding, with multiple
startups raising hundreds of millions of dollars in funding in the
last 12 months.
