OpenAI Whistleblower Suchir Balaji Found Murdered Before Testimony as Custodian Witness Against Company
Jan 15, 2025, 10:50 PM
Suchir Balaji, an OpenAI whistleblower, was found dead in his apartment shortly before he was scheduled to testify in a copyright case against the company. His mother has alleged that he was murdered due to his claims against OpenAI, stating that he possessed documents that could incriminate the organization. In a recent interview with Tucker Carlson, she emphasized Balaji's role as a 'Custodian Witness' for The New York Times and expressed concerns about the circumstances surrounding his death. Carlson also communicated with Congressman Ro Khanna during the interview, urging him to advocate for a comprehensive investigation into Balaji's death. Balaji's mother indicated that her son had expressed strong opposition to OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, and had intentions to collaborate with Altman's sister on non-profit initiatives, further complicating the narrative surrounding his demise.
