‘Was Definitely Murdered’: Tucker Carlson Grills Sam Altman Over OpenAI Whistleblower’s Death

Roy, Manisha. “‘Was Definitely Murdered’: Tucker Carlson Grills Sam Altman Over OpenAI Whistleblower’s Death”.

This article describes another segment of the interview that Tucker Carlson had with Sam Alton, in which Tucker grilled Altman on the recent suspicion that OpenAI’s whistleblower, Suchir Balaji, did not commit suicide as was declared by the authorities, but was in fact murdered. With Altman continuously insisting that it was clearly a suicide, Tucker kept bringing forth information and reasons as to why he believed the incident to be a homicide. Altman quickly became defensive when the information provided suggested him as the murderer.

I thought this was interesting because it is connected to another post I made tonight about another segment of the same interview. I think that, despite what you might think about Tucker Carlson, if you actually watch this part of the interview, Altman’s reactions to the information being given to him is incredibly suspicious. I chose to post an article instead of the video, in fear that it might count as a duplicate, but I thought it was so important, interesting, and eerie that I couldn’t not share it.
