Hey do y’all remember when Boeing fucking killed a guy last year. And we all said “huh I guess Boeing fucking killed a guy” and then went on with our lives. And everybody knew that Boeing had fully just fucking executed a guy and nothing came of it. Like there was no police investigation no justice no nothing. Like literally EVERYBODY knew that Boeing had full on murdered a guy to silence him and there wasn’t any consequences for them. Kinda crazy.
and there was even less talk when openai did the exact same thing more recently
So for those who are, very understandably uninitiated on this story:
On 23 October last year (2024) the New York Times published an interview with former OpenAI researcher Suchir Balaji who worked on organising and gathering data for OpenAI until 2022 when he begun thinking about the morality of it. He eventually came to the conclusion that what OpenAI is doing blatantly violates copyright law and decided to leave the company altogether in August 2024.
After he came out with this accusation he was set to appear in court to testify against OpenAI’s data-gathering practices, something which had the potential of being a complete disaster for the company and the generative AI industry as a whole.
That was until 26 November, just days before he was due to appear in court, when he suddenly and mysteriously was found dead inside his own apartment. Investigators concluded that the death was self-inflicted, something which his family has disputed.
There was also “sign of struggle in the bathroom and looks like someone hit him in the bathroom based on blood spots”, and his apartment showed signs of having been ransacked for evidence: “The pin drive is missing. His computer was messed up.”.
Overall it feels pretty clear-cut what happened, that is to say that OpenAI had him killed because he was a legitimate threat to their business, indicating that they are fully aware that the way they’re gathering data is completely illegal.

For those of you who don't know about the Boeing case, a whistleblower named John Barnett was found dead in the middle of his deposition: https://www.qcnews.com/news/boeing-whistleblower-set-to-testify-is-found-shot-to-death/
And there actually was an investigation, but it concluded that it was suicide: https://apnews.com/article/boeing-whistleblower-suicide-9fe771a97c5745b9c53f24c04141e474
It is possible that it was suicide (which doesn't make Boeing look any better, obviously), but I wouldn't be surprised if the "surveillance footage" was doctored in some way, especially since another Boeing whistleblower, Joshua Dean, also died after he testified: https://www.snopes.com/news/2024/05/07/boeing-whistleblower-deaths/
That being said, the deaths motivated even more whistleblowers to come forward against Boeing: https://fortune.com/2024/05/09/more-boeing-whistleblowers-emerge-law-firm/
Hopefully Suchir Balaji's story will have a similar effect, especially with all the evidence pointing to assassination.
Y'ALL.

MY MAN!!!
That’s just her bare bones, this is the full river and it’s tributaries.
Isn’t she gorgeous. Literally the veins of life. Love her. Appreciate her.
And here are the pipelines in the area :)
The blue color explains the interstate pipelines and the red color explains the intrastate pipelines of the United state.
Now here is Mississippi again but this time I overlayed it on that map of the pipelines that cross it. And you know, threaten it, the ecosystems that rely on it, and 80% of humans in the USA who source their water from it.
You can show your respect by fighting pipelines and demanding cleaner energy
okay, reblog this version instead
