An image of Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way, which scientists think is spinning as fast as it possibly can.Now, I can easily locate the direction of the Milky Way's core using a device that is used for virtually everything else I do throughout my day.

Essentially, Webb asked ChatGPT for step-by-step instructions on how to build the app through a series of questions he input into the chatbot. He then copied and pasted the code from ChatGPT into Xcode, making sure each step was complete before moving to the next.
