Whistleblower deaths should have all of a company's director's investigated by default. It may be that 99% are innocent, but just one or two seeing their massively valuable stock, and options in danger, may be driven to such actions on their own.
I didn't even read the article. I just barely skimmed it and guess what I found within 2 seconds.
"Balaji’s death comes three months after he publicly accused OpenAI of violating U.S. copyright law while developing ChatGPT, a generative artificial intelligence program that has become a moneymaking sensation used by hundreds of millions of people across the world."
He had hard proof chat gpt used copyright work to train. Opening them up to lawsuits of said copyright holders and basically collapsing the whole company.
Facts aren't protected by copyright. Regurgitating facts about a thing is in no way illegal, even if done by ai and done by ingested copyrighted material. I can legally make a website dedicated to stating only facts about Disney products (all other things the same) when prompted by questions of my users.
The mere fact that ChatGPT “knows” about certain things indicate that it ingested certain copyrighted works.
This is the bit I'm responding to. This "mere fact" that you propose is not copyright infringement by facts I've stated. I'm not making claims to any of your other original statements
Verbatim reproduction may be copyright infringement, but that wasn't your original claim that I quoted and am responding to (I didn't make that clear earlier, that's on me).

Obviously suicide because it happened at his house/apartment. Because who else would suicide him self in his apartment right? I wouldn't go trying to figure out how it happened. Like with finger printing surfaces or sniffing dogs or checking cameras. Why would sniffing a dog even help?

We’re truly in a dystopian future when big tech nerds are doing mafia hits. Reminds me of that guy in Better Call Saul that hired Mike as a bodyguard.
Police say it appears to be a suicide. Probably true, honestly, but that doesn't mean he wasn't driven to it.
I wouldn't believe the cops without some evidence either way.
That's even worse!
Let me guess: it was less than 30 stabs that they found in his back?
“He blew the whistle on a multibillion dollar company - obviously he knew they’d kill him! Suicide.”
When the working class kills a CEO, there's a reward by the FBI and is found in a week. When a company does it, the world is silent.

The police are too busy shooting people's pets and being scared of acorns to investigate something like this.
Oh and shooting people for avoid the 3.50 New York subway fare.....
RIP. Hope that his whistleblowing doesn't end up falling on deaf ears
There are 11 others involved in the case.
What whistle did he blow?

It was more of an opinion piece. They were already being sued and he didn't bring any new info forward from what I understand.
The issue is proving that it ingested the original copyrighted work, and not some hypothetical public copyleft essay.

Twice is better. Reliable.
If Zombieland taught us anything, it's the double-tap.
