…Yea I’m not buying it.
Yep, he definitely got suicided. It without question was a staged murder setup to lead investigators to deem it as such…
And American cops are all too happy to take one less murder case if there’s any room to say it was a suicide. They’re not looking to add unsolved murders, especially ones that implicate he most powerful companies and men in the world.
Yep
Since we’re talking about AI, I presume it wouldn’t mess up a suicide. Or control the internet narrative with 5MB of memory.
Balaji’s parents claim to have evidence from their independent investigation, such as ballistic evidence from the private autopsy, which they claim shows a downwards bullet travel path that would be impossible by a self-administered gunshot. Balaji’s parents also claim that a tuft of wig hair found at the scene that did not belong to Suchir represents unexplained evidence.

Also, the fact that he had the balls to blow the whistle seems to imply that he had no intention of ending his life before he could actually follow through.
This shit is just so obvious.
You’ve heard about a Boeing suicide, no we have new age OpenAI suicide.
People love mocking Russians when their “leaders” fall out of windows, but where are these people when corpos kill plebs within US?
you missed one.
Prison suicide, also known as “epsteined”
Weren’t there two boing suicides? Or the second one was something more creative, I think.
Second one had enough plausible deniability to permit neo lib regime whores to label it as a “conspiracy theory”
They will pretend that the first one did not happen or that it was a fluke in the system of “democracy”
America’s version of fell out the window
Sir, this is a “Democracy”

Indeed, Balaji’s death — of a self-inflicted gunshot, per the San Francisco County Medical Examiner’s report — had become a focal point in debates over AI ethics, corporate accountability, and the dangers faced by whistleblowers in Silicon Valley. Whether these things become disentangled now remains to be seen.
Bet they don’t
Yeah, you just threatened a $600 billion a year industry and no one murdered you.
Yeah, everyone knows that people who have the courage to blow the whistle when they see awful shit, are likely to kill themselves before they can share that information with anyone… Makes complete sense.
Same with Aaron Swartz.
Alright… is there something I don’t know. I was not aware that Aaron Swartz’ death was a Boeing suicide.
Very similar story to the guy above. I mean, very similar!
Except Aaron was being prosecuted for pirating open scientific papers. He was being heavily pressured by the FBI and was facing serious fines and jail time.
It’s less surprising that he took his own life in that situation. I know less about the OpenAI whistleblower, but it seems much more suspicious from here.
if you plan to whistleblow something, always plan it thoroughly so you cant be silenced by being murdered.
And make it abundantly clear to everyone that you’re not suicidal. Record videos with date stamps. Send date stamped letters by mail to friends, with instructions to retain the letters indefinitely, and perhaps which are clearly marked “to be opened in the event of my death”. The letters should say something along the lines of “I am not suicidal. I do not want to die. I am not going to kill myself under any circumstances. If I die, it was not by suicide. I want to live. I have ABC reasons to live. I have XYZ plans for the future.” Etc.
Keep multiple copies of the information in multiple locations, and make sure multiple people know where a copy is. Ideally, have a dead-man’s switch set up, or someone you trust to do it, to automatically send all the information to all the major news outlets if you do turn up dead, along with a statement akin to the letter outlined above to make it clear you were murdered.
I’m not sure it’s in those exact terms, but I think there were a few cases with high levels of preparation. Ended up being ruled as suicides anyway by the courts and the media. Not saying they’ll always win, though. But their idealogical power is not to underestimate.
A minister in my country was deemed to have committed suicide by drowning in a 50cm body of water. Strangely enough, all witnesses have committed suicide too just before being heard by the courts.
And it worked. Everybody know it wasn’t a suicide, but it changes nothing for those responsible of the murder.
Didn’t the boeing guy pretty explicitly state that he was not suicidal to family and friends right before he died?
Yes he did
They think we are so fucking stupid, don’t they?
The point is like Russian point. It isn’t just to silence you so trouble goes away that the whistle-blower was involved with. It’s to silence other potential whistle-blowers. It’s too send a message.
Yeah I read somewhere that, in Russian culture, the more absurd the cover up story the more insulting it is meant to be for the victim.
Like if someone “shot themselves 3 times in the back of the head then fell out of a window”. Maybe Epstein fits into that too
hmm, true. Which makes it even more crucial to avoid getting murdered.
It’s a great idea, though in practice I fear you’d seem like Snowden and everyone would eventually coalesce around the idea that you’re a traitor because you didn’t get assassinated or put into a dark hole to be forgotten.
Isn’t Snowden, like, actually a dipshit though? He released info that got our spies killed.
Some was important to know. Some just got people murdered
What info got spies killed exactly? Aspersions were cast but no actual information ever came out about that, and presumably if they’re already dead then it can be released.
If that had actually happened, the government would have been howling from the rooftops about it, we’d all know their names.
But the reports on what damage it did were entirely redacted, and the worst thing they could say was “likely to have lethal consequences”, which presumably means it hadn’t had lethal consequences. Pretty weak shit, and even then we’re just supposed to trust them when they relay the contents of blacked out pages to us?
Also they’re bitching and moaning about how it will weaken their ability to do spy shit and like… good. Why do we want them to do that shit? Everything we know about what they do is basically universally evil, so maybe Snowden is a hero actually.
Nah, it’s bullshit, they’re just trying to assassinate his character and it sounds like you fell for it.
He released info that got our spies killed.
citation requested. I’ve only seen this as a fox news talking point, never, ever substantiated.
Not really a snowden fan myself, but really feel we need to be accurate when things like this are asserted.
No?
Can someone fill me in on the missing info here…
How is it that Zuck has been busted (basically) for training his ai on 80TB of pirated materials via torrents and it seems to be getting swept under the rug, yet this poor guy points out Sam Altman doing the same and he’s suicided?
even better. use the fact that companies didn’t legally pursue Facebook as an argument that IP laws aren’t being enforced and that downloaded IP content isn’t in violation of copyright.
if they refuse to follow laws, and refuse to enforce laws, there are no laws.
I think you accidentally a word.
Oh oops! Good catch.
Why does the news increasingly sound like the lore of Cyberpunk 2077?
…but without the fucking cool stuff.
Give it 52 years and we’ll have more cool stuff, plus 300% more ads.
We got some of it, its just that killer drones and SI aren’t as cool on this side of the screen, and the cyberware is only for rich people (though there is a growing 3D printed movement for amputees) That said with some craft skills we can at least make the cool punk armor and kneepads and have it be reasonably functional, even deploy a blade if you’re ambitious, though more predator than mantis in that regard.
Be the change you want to see.
Sigh, it really does.
Suuuuure it was.
Wow that must be pretty crazy to do this to yourself
I’ll throw a wild one out there. OpenAI didn’t do it. Maybe Elon is in on this one. Makes OpenAI look shady after their recent rebuff of his shit and gives the media something else to chew on while he’s dismantling our government with the cheeto emperor.
Or is it exactly the reason Sam Altman was ready to line up for the inauguration with bribe in hand?
Bullshit
