It's funny how all those who blow whistles are so suicidal
Whistles, a gateway to suicide.
And how suddenly the police does not feel the need for a huge manhunt to find the assassin

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.
Yes, but it's important to not immediately assume that it's because they've been killed.
I'd wager a statistically significant amount of whistleblowers are actually just liars looking to get recognition. When their lie catches up with them, they realize they've lost the one thing they had going for them and decide to end it all.
In the digital age where information can be shared so freely and so easily, there's not really an excuse for whistleblowers to be like "wait until THIS date" before revealing their information.
I'd wager a statistically significant amount of whistleblowers are actually just liars looking to get recognition.
So do you have some research stating that or is it just a sort of feeling?
Because that's an incredibly wild allegation to be making, impeaching someone's veracity, especially after a fatality, should absolutely come with some kind of evidence.

This is a very unlikely situation.
These stories of nefarious liars abusing poor defenseless corporations would be publicized widely if true. We'd have prominent, well known examples.
This needs people who think the threats and reputational damage of being a whistleblower are worth it for the 'recognition', who are smart enough to construct a believable sounding claim but not smart enough to see the inevitable consequences. That specific kind of person is going to be much rarer than people who work for a legitimately shitty company and don't like it.
Why is that important? No you assume they are/were killed until someone has some real fuckin proof about it

We can’t ask the coroner what happened, because they are out on their new boat.
C'mon, we can't expect the coroner to blow the whistle on the actual cause of death. If we did, there would soon be no coroners left.
Hah! That’s good.
"Whistleblower" because he had a negative opinion on his former company?
he was an important informant in an OpenAI lawsuit
OpenAI has entered the chat^
The article really doesn’t point to any damning thing he said. We’re left to speculate whether he was actually saying they knowingly flaunted copyright laws.
Well this will certainly be more of a thing.
Maybe next time they can fall out of a balcony they didn't actually have to make it SUPER OBVIOUS what just happened.
Need to make sure they only stay in first floor locations or places without windows. Whistle blowers gonna be pushed out of windows just like Daddy Vladdy likes.
Careful what you say on threads such as these, OpenAIs Basilisk might be reading
That’s a scary thought
I guess the apartment windows didn't open otherwise he would have been thrown himself out of it, I'm sure

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.
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.

No foul play... I bet there was major evidence of a struggle in his apartment.
What the hell? Is this fucking Russia?
