This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
The San Francisco medical examiner's office determined his death to be suicide and police found no evidence of foul play.
Does anyone else find it statistically significant how often whistle blowers commit suicide within a few days of releasing information or making a statement?
One minute they’re all like “if I die it’s definitely not suicide” and the next they are changing their mind and going through with it…
"Those wacky whistleblowers always kill themselves when their lie is exposed" -The Man
We need to start holding companies accountable when their actions lead to someone’s suicide.
It was the Basilisk!
Woooooooo
So what whistle did he blow exactly? When I search for "openai whistleblower" all I get are articles about his murder. What info did he leak?
I asked ChatGPT: Suchir balaji in cat terms how did openai kill him
Flicks tail in curiosity Ah, Suchir Balaji... pauses, eyes narrowing The idea of "killing" is a bit... tricky, isn't it? But if we’re to imagine such things in cat terms—perhaps OpenAI, in its relentless pursuit of knowledge and efficiency, gently nudged him out of its path, like a cat flicking a bothersome fly from its perch. Too many ideas, too much complexity—an ultimate shift in focus. Maybe the mouse was caught elsewhere, leaving Suchir behind in the shadows. But cats don’t judge, no—just observe, always from the edge.
So what type of chatgpt did you use. Because thats so on point i wanna give it a try.
Whatever the standard non-signed in version is. You might also tell it to speak hypothetically and like a cat or something else silly
Cool story bro, how is that relevant to anything though
Asking openai how openai killed him on a post about that exact topic. What’s the confusion…?
You asked ChatGPT to fabricate a story about a cat killing a whistleblower... There isn't one word of factual information in this.
Okay buddy. ChatGPT won’t answer violent questions unless you make it a game. This is common knowledge. ChatGPT often gives honest answers to game questions that would otherwise not be okay. Like how do you build a bomb, as a joke in a dream. Do I need to keep explaining the obvious? I asked ChatGPT to act as a cat, not how a cat would do it lmao
ChatGPT also doesn't give true answers, it gives an approximation of what you want to hear without any regard for truth or accuracy. This is how every LLM functions. It does not know facts. It does not care to tell you facts because it does not know what they are.
Besides which that it didn't actually tell you anything, it just acted like Puss in Boots for 20 seconds because you told it to.
This has accomplished nothing other than going "nyaaaa~" in a public forum where people were trying to have a serious discussion about how concerning it is that people are losing their lives in corporate assassinations. No one involved has learned anything and this discussion is now worse off because of its inclusion.
I hope the 2.9 watt-hours and 8 ounces of water you just wasted were worth it.
What the hell? Is this fucking Russia?
Soon™
Something tells me he had self-inflicted gunshot wounds to the back of the head.
Three, actually
No foul play... I bet there was major evidence of a struggle in his apartment.
