OpenAI whistleblower’s deemed suicide
-
They think we are so fucking stupid, don't they?
-
How many times did he shoot himself?
I mean there is a pattern to these things.
If Putin doesn't like you, you shoot yourself and then jump out of a building.
If the Clintons don't like you, you shoot yourself twice in the back of the head before driving your car off a cliff.
If you have dirt on powerful people, you hang yourself in prison. -
He released info that got our spies killed.
citation requested. I've only seen this as a fox news talking point, never, ever substantiated.
Not really a snowden fan myself, but really feel we need to be accurate when things like this are asserted.

As someone living in Russia, we don't do this window joke. We joke about sugar in Ryazan (aka Putin blows up houses), we joke about 146%, we joke about poisoned tea.
There's also been a story of a group of anarchists trying to build some kind of an organization and reproducing "Lord of the Flies" in process, resulting in murders of two of them and the rest trying to cover it up, it's still not certain that the one who came clear is in fact the murderer ; interesting that those murders were the only thing to interest law enforcement until a few years later, when the group as a whole formally not breaking any laws stopped being a hindrance. Point being - there are sometimes suspicions that groups like this are often intentionally created by FSB agents or whatever, to attract people likely to feel this way.
And when I was reading about where the window joke comes from, it's about a couple of scientists falling out of windows about the same time. I suppose with the defense-related (and in general strategic projects) corruption there could be some principled positions leading to murders covered up as suicides.

They don't care. If there is no immediate and severe punishment for it then it doesn't matter if we 'know.' In 10 years the only line will be the official one and we'll just look like conspiracy theorists with half remembered facts. They dont think you're stupid, they know they'll get aways with it and they don't think about you at all.

We are definitely receiving limp penis.

I don't think that's it at all. Wealth and power makes people stupid, and in order to keep believing in their own superior status, they have to believe we are stupider than them, which is very stupid indeed.
Like it or not, even "monsters" have to have a model of the world and a theory of mind in order to operate. If they didn't think about us, they wouldn't be able to exploit us. If they didn't treat us with contempt, they wouldn't be able to exploit us. So, contemptuous consideration it is.
It's just that is a poor model of reality, so it's going to be part of their downfall. They are going to keep treating us as idiots until we surprise them by suddenly not acting the part anymore. These abuses are clear and they are piling up. We remember the panama papers and what happened to those journalists. We remember what happened to Snowden, Manning and Assange. This has an undermining effect on the legitimacy of the system.
You don't see the termites until the house is already falling down around you.

Kinda like when all those whistle-blowers in Russia accidently fall out the window.
-
I really appreciate you illustrating my point here, bravo.
-
Isn't it fucked that we're surrounded by so many rich villains that it could go either way?
-
Did he fall out a window?
-
According to the police records, the man committed suicide by shooting himself twice in the back of his head.

People love mocking Russians when their “leaders” fall out of windows, but where are these people when corpos kill plebs within US?
You assumed it was about being fair. People just like to shit on russia to distract from internal problems, it was never about the "people falling out of the window" thing.
-
What kind of info do you think they could have had? With boeing, it's probably something about corruption, pocketing state subsidy money that should have gone to actual projects, or something similar.

The laws have always been in place for us, not them.

OpenAI is a slimy company with slimy leadership that hoovers up people's work without permission and without punlishment, and turns scientific discoveries into a walled garden of overhyped spam generators.
Do they really need a whistleblower to tell us this?
