MODERATORS
I guess most of OpenAI employees subscribe to their bosses' ideas of collateral damage to advance the human race. They think we're all going to dial into some AGI driven singularity one day.
People working at OpenAI know that things like this suicide can happen and still enable OpenAI. I don't think they're victims here, unless they're already sabotaging the company.
It's a cult and people at this company should be held responsible for this death.
