There is no doubt he was killed. 1) For People who say everyone already knows Open AI already is infringing copyright and that is not a good enough reason for them to kill Suchir:

He was going to present documents and testify in a legal filing days before his death. Its not like Open AI was going to tell the courts ... "Ohh yeah everyone knows we steal data , its an open secret , dont you know ? " .. They obviously want to defend that.

2) He was someone very driven. Not someone sad about life sitting at home eating chips and watching tv. If he has plans to pursue further research after leaving open ai , and go after his ex-employer , he clearly is not someone beaten down by life that he would take his life. ( On one hand he is planning to present documents and testify , and on the other hands these guys are saying its a suicide ).

3) Who ransacks their own home before suicide. There were also signs of struggle, and blood spots in his apartment.
