Criticism towards the AI funding roadmap includes alleged bias towards big-tech interests and lack of measures for urgent AI policy issues. Boeing's Starliner spacecraft faced a setback due to a helium leak in a thruster, delaying its launch to no earlier than May 21, 2024. Boeing and NASA plan operational solutions instead of physical repairs for the helium leak. Additionally, a valve failure on the Atlas V rocket required repairs.
