Family of Deceased OpenAI Whistleblower Disputes Suicide Ruling

If the tweet is factual, I wouldn't be surprised if a large Saudi or Western investor in OpenAI with zero conscience got him whacked. I don't however think that OpenAI itself had anything to do with it.

An alternate theory is that the government itself is culpable in both alleged hits (Boeing and OpenAI) , due to damage to military and/or intelligence operations if the companies were to do poorly. It's funny though, considering how poorly Boeing has performed in space.

Going forward, the question that remains unanswered for me is whether to fear investors or infiltrators. Either way, those who don't get the message will keep finding out the hard way with a suicide note discovered next to them.

It is also funny that law enforcement doesn't investigate whose gun it officially was. Let me guess - the numbers were scraped off.

I don't think it was smart for a random individual to fight for copyrights. They don't really help the individual, only the publisher.
