OpenAI whistleblower Suchir Balaji took his own life by shooting himself in the head, the medical examiner has ruled.
The tech prodigy, 26, who just a month earlier revealed the company's dubious methods of training ChatGPT, was found dead on November 26.
Balaji was sprawled next to his bathroom door with blood all over part of his apartment in San Francisco's Mint Hill neighborhood.
His parents Poornima Ramarao and Balaji Ramamurthy insist he couldn't have killed himself, and are furious police took just 40 minutes to rule his death a suicide.
They hired Joseph Cohen, former chief forensic pathologist of Riverside County, California, to conduct a second autopsy in December, but are yet to reveal the report.
The San Francisco Chief Medical Examiner's Office confirmed the police suicide ruling with the release of Balaji's autopsy report on Friday afternoon.
The report included some shocking new findings including that Balaji was drunk and had multiple drug including GHP in his system when he shot himself, and that he made searches about brain matter on his computer.
Additional to the medical evidence, the report noted the only way into Balaji's fourth-floor apartment number #404 was his front door.
