加州科技舉報者父母提起訴訟,警告兒子意外死亡的情況

一位年輕的加州科技舉報者於2024年去世,其父母現在正在起訴舊金山市和舊金縣,指控他們違反公共記錄法,拒絕滿足他們對兒子死亡信息的請求。

26歲的蘇奇爾·巴拉吉(Suchir Balaji)在2024年11月26日去世時,是人工智能公司OpenAI的員工,該公司是ChatGPT的開發者。舊金山縣的法醫檢查官於次日確認他死於自殺,死因是自我造成的槍傷。

訴訟文件中指出:「在他們兒子去世的兩個多月裡,請願者及其律師在尋求有關蘇奇爾悲劇性死亡的原因和情況的更多信息時,屢屢受到阻礙。他們希望這項請願是結束這種阻礙的開始。」

舊金山城市檢察官辦公室的發言人珍·克瓦特(Jen Kwart)對福克斯新聞數字版表示,一旦他們的辦公室收到傳票,他們將審查該訴訟並作出相應回應。克瓦特表示:「巴拉吉先生的去世是一場悲劇,我們對他的家人深表同情。」

家族律師凱文·魯尼(Kevin Rooney)告訴福克斯新聞數字版:「在過去三個月裡,他們真的經歷了一場噩夢。我們認為,許多與自殺不符的事實表明……他的死亡可能是謀殺。」

在去世前幾天,巴拉吉在加塔利娜島(Catalina Island)和朋友慶祝26歲生日時,表現得「愉快而快樂」。訴訟中指出,巴拉吉是一位「天才兒童,對編程有特別的興趣和才能」。他畢業於加州大學伯克利分校,隨後被聘為OpenAI的AI研究員。

然而,到了2024年8月,巴拉吉對OpenAI的商業做法感到失望,決定辭職,追求自己的項目。在10月,他被《紐約時報》報導,標題為《前OpenAI研究員稱該公司違反版權法》,並附上了他的照片。

根據訴訟,巴拉吉聲稱「OpenAI違反美國版權法,因為ChatGPT基於競爭對手的版權產品進行訓練,從而模仿和替代這些產品,危及OpenAI競爭對手的商業可行性。」

OpenAI在1月16日的聲明中稱巴拉吉是公司「受重視的成員」,而其員工仍對他的去世感到心痛。

巴拉吉的父母,普爾尼瑪·拉馬拉奧(Poornima Ramarao)和巴賈米·拉馬穆爾西(Bajami Ramamurthy),指控他們對兒子死亡的更多信息的請求在加利福尼亞公共記錄法下被不公正地拒絕。他們在訴訟中進一步指控,調查人員並未認真對待他們對巴拉吉舉報者身份的擔憂。

魯尼表示,調查人員有充分理由不向公眾披露某些犯罪案件的信息。「但至少應該與他們溝通,告訴他們正在進行的調查情況。」他說:「如果這裡沒有進行這種溝通,因為他們已經得出結論認為蘇奇爾是自殺,並且調查已結束,那麼……根據法律,我們確實有權查看警方記錄。」

當拉馬拉奧告知代表她的兒子是OpenAI的舉報者,並曾在《紐約時報》上提及其舉報指控時,該代表拒絕進一步跟進或尋求其他信息。訴訟中指控:「相反,法醫辦公室的代表將蘇奇爾的公寓鑰匙交給拉馬拉奧,告訴她可以在第二天取回兒子的遺體,並告訴她不應該看到蘇奇爾的遺體,因為他的臉在子彈穿過他的眼睛時已經毀壞。」

巴拉吉的父母聘請的法醫病理學家約瑟夫·科恩(Joseph Cohen)進行了私人驗屍,並指出巴拉吉的槍傷「在自殺中是不典型和不常見的」。根據訴訟,這位26歲的年輕人還在頭部後方有瘀傷。科恩還指出,子彈的彈道是向下且略微向左,且「子彈完全錯過了大腦,然後穿透並停留在腦幹中。」

這一事件引發了對科技公司內部舉報者保護的討論,並突顯出在面對公司權力和公共機構時,個人如何可能被忽視或不公對待。巴拉吉的父母的訴訟不僅是為了尋求真相,也是對整個系統的一種拷問,是否能夠真正保護那些勇於發聲的人。

Create a sticker set maintaining 100% of the woman's original facial features from the provided image. Do not alter the face, focusing on ultra-realistic details of the facial structure, eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and expression. The final face must be realistic, not cartoon-like. She has long, voluminous hair.
1. Makeup:Maintain Original Face: We will preserve the structure of your face, eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and expression as closely as possible to the original image to maintain naturalness and uniqueness, while adjusting the tone to be softer:

Eyes: Slightly reduce the sharpness of the Cat Eye eyeliner to a thin line close to the lash line for a softer look, while still maintaining eye definition.
Eyeshadow: Use natural tones like light brown, peach, or beige.
Eyebrows: Original shape, but brushed up to look softer and more natural.
Lips: Glossy, pink-tinted, nude-pink, or coral-toned lipstick/tint to make the lips look full and moisturized. Focus on a bright but not overly intense look.
2. Hairstyle:Natural Voluminous Long Hair: Her hair is long and flowing, but the styling will emphasize natural volume and movement. Soft, natural waves.
3. Outfit:

Attire: A white open-back bodysuit paired with distressed, faded blue denim shorts. There is a message "Kunika" on the shirt.
Shoes: Elegant, simple open-toe flat sandals.
Accessories: Styled freely and fittingly for each scene.
4. Poses & Sticker Elements:Poses: Various poses such as waving, jumping, walking playfully, reading a book, holding up a sign, cheering with both hands, stretching, or making a celebratory gesture, to create a cheerful and friendly atmosphere.Decoration: Include elements like small rainbows, sparkling stars, clear bubbles, hearts, balloons, or light-colored dots to decorate and enhance the fun of each sticker scene.Style: Thin black border around the sticker. Use a modern, rounded 'Itim' style font for the text.Text: Add short emotional phrases written in a cute, beautiful script near the sticker (no speech bubbles/text boxes):

"Hello"
"Love you"
"Submitting work"
"Great"
"Got it"
"Thanks!"
"Wait a sec"
"Ready to care"
"Fight"
"Let's do it"
"So cute"
"OK"
"Sweet dreams:
"Get well soon"
"555"
"You're welcome"
"HBD" 
"OMG" 
"Sorry"
"Got a headache" 
Guidelines: Do not include a text box. Ensure balanced composition with sufficient white space—not cluttered. Match the pose to the text.
Emphasis: Reiterate 'maintain 100% of the original face features from the provided image,' 'ultra-realistic facial detail,' and 'professional studio lighting on face (realistic face, not cartoon face).

Use Cantonese in the stickers. Generate an ultra-realistic, highly ultra-detailed, 8k resolution with 1080x1080 pixel portrait of me using the uploaded image for reference (preserved the likeness and the original face for reference) of a striking, ultra-sharp black and white studio portrait of a young woman with a powerful, direct gaze. She is seated gracefully on a seamless bright white floor, her legs crossed in a stylized, almost sculptural pose, with one knee raised and her hands clasped firmly over it. Her posture exudes a blend of strength and quiet contemplation. Her long, sleek, dark brown hair is meticulously parted down the middle, falling evenly over her shoulders, framing her face with elegant precision. Her makeup is refined and impactful, featuring intensely defined eyes with dark eyeliner, subtle shading, and prominent, well-groomed eyebrows. Her lips are natural, complementing her smooth, matte complexion. She is dressed in a simple, form-fitting black long-sleeved bodysuit, which accentuates the natural contours of her body without distraction. There are no accessories, maintaining a pure and minimalist aesthetic. *** The lighting is soft, even, and highly diffused, creating subtle, sculptural shadows that define her form and facial features without any harshness. The seamless pure white background provides an expansive, ethereal setting, isolating the subject and enhancing the monochromatic palette. The composition is a perfectly balanced medium full shot, centering the model and emphasizing the strong, symmetrical lines of her pose. The image is rendered with exquisite detail and clarity, from the individual strands of her hair to the subtle textures of her skin. The overall style is minimalist fine art portraiture, blending classic elegance with a contemporary edge, focusing on form, emotional depth, and timeless beauty. A dynamic, ultra-realistic action shot of a snowboarder performing a high-air jump on a snowy mountain slope. The rider wears a bright green winter jacket, black snow pants, gloves, and a dark beanie, with reflective goggles catching the cold mountain light. A cloud of visible breath escapes from the rider’s mouth in the freezing air. Snow explodes upward from the snowboard, creating sharp, frozen particles suspended mid-air. The background features a dramatic high-altitude landscape with forested slopes and distant mountains under soft, cold blue lighting.
