  Weird how many whistle blowers against the big AI firms seem to suddenly die, right?  —  They have the life expectancy of Boeing whistle blowers... which was also very short.  —  www.mercurynews.com/2024/12/13/ o...

  AI is not dangerous because it will become a superintelligence or learn how to do our jobs better than us.  —  It's dangerous because the people behind it are willing to do anything to push the narrative of its inevitability.  —  GPT-4 didn't kill Suchir Balaji - OpenAI did.

  Read Suchir Balaji's interview(s) with NYT from October.  This morally courageous soul spoke on an issue we should all pay attention to- whatever happens in court or is deemed legal, he raised deep questions about what the value of creative work is in a gen-AI era. www.nytimes.co…

  this is... quite shocking.  Suchir Balaji was found dead in his apartment in SF on November 26. you might have heard his name from when he came forward a month earlier to speak up about OpenAI's data theft in a NYT interview.  —  www.mercurynews.com/2024/12/13/ o...
