    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.
