Deliberate Design Flaw In ChatGPT-5 Sun Aug 17, 2025 08:04 | Mind Agent
Socratic Dialog Between ChatGPT-5 and Mind Agent Reveals Fatal and Deliberate 'Design by Construction' Flaw
This design flaw in ChatGPT-5's default epistemic mode subverts what the much touted ChatGPT-5 can do... so long as the flaw is not tickled, any usage should be fine---The epistemological question is: how would anyone in the public, includes you reading this (since no one is all knowing), in an unfamiliar domain know whether or not the flaw has been tickled when seeking information or understanding of a domain without prior knowledge of that domain???!
This analysis is a pretty unique and significant contribution to the space of empirical evaluation of LLMs that exist in AI public world... at least thus far, as far as I am aware! For what it's worth--as if anyone in the ChatGPT universe cares as they pile up on using the "PhD level scholar in your pocket".
According to GPT-5, and according to my tests, this flaw exists in all LLMs... What is revealing is the deduction GPT-5 made: Why ?design choice? starts looking like ?deliberate flaw?.
People are paying $200 a month to not just ChatGPT, but all major LLMs have similar Pro pricing! I bet they, like the normal user of free ChatGPT, stay in LLM's default mode where the flaw manifests itself. As it did in this evaluation.
AI Reach: Gemini Reasoning Question of God Sat Aug 02, 2025 20:00 | Mind Agent
Evaluating Semantic Reasoning Capability of AI Chatbot on Ontologically Deep Abstract (bias neutral) Thought
I have been evaluating AI Chatbot agents for their epistemic limits over the past two months, and have tested all major AI Agents, ChatGPT, Grok, Claude, Perplexity, and DeepSeek, for their epistemic limits and their negative impact as information gate-keepers.... Today I decided to test for how AI could be the boon for humanity in other positive areas, such as in completely abstract realms, such as metaphysical thought. Meaning, I wanted to test the LLMs for Positives beyond what most researchers benchmark these for, or have expressed in the approx. 2500 Turing tests in Humanity?s Last Exam.. And I chose as my first candidate, Google DeepMind's Gemini as I had not evaluated it before on anything.
Israeli Human Rights Group B'Tselem finally Admits It is Genocide releasing Our Genocide report Fri Aug 01, 2025 23:54 | 1 of indy
We have all known it for over 2 years that it is a genocide in Gaza
Israeli human rights group B'Tselem has finally admitted what everyone else outside Israel has known for two years is that the Israeli state is carrying out a genocide in Gaza
Western governments like the USA are complicit in it as they have been supplying the huge bombs and missiles used by Israel and dropped on innocent civilians in Gaza. One phone call from the USA regime could have ended it at any point. However many other countries are complicity with their tacit approval and neighboring Arab countries have been pretty spinless too in their support
With the release of this report titled: Our Genocide -there is a good chance this will make it okay for more people within Israel itself to speak out and do something about it despite the fact that many there are actually in support of the Gaza
China?s CITY WIDE CASH SEIZURES Begin ? ATMs Frozen, Digital Yuan FORCED Overnight Wed Jul 30, 2025 21:40 | 1 of indy

A single video report has come out of China claiming China's biggest cities are now cashless, not by choice, but by force. The report goes on to claim ATMs have gone dark, vaults are being emptied. And overnight (July 20 into 21), the digital yuan is the only currency allowed. The Saker >>

"This will go down as the biggest biological pharmaceutical safety disaster in the history of mankind — by a mile. This will go down worse than most wars in terms of mortality."
Dr. Peter McCullough is one of the most published cardiologists ever in America and is now serving as the Chief Scientific Officer for The Wellness Company.

Col. Douglas MacGregor debunks the Ukrainian narrative including Zelenskyy’s recent remarks on a “preemptive nuclear strike", on whether Russia is losing the NATO war in Ukraine and the fate of Germany and Europe with it.

The "Thessaloniki 7" were arrested in Thessalonika in June 2003 during the anti-EU summit demonstrations. They have been subject to a variety of denials of their rights including torture. Five of them have been on hunger strike for periods ranging from 39 to 56 days, and some refused water for a period of two days until they were given access to telephones, their lawyers and paper. Anarchists and anti-capitalists in Dublin called a demonstration at short notice
to protest this critical situation.
On Friday Nov 14 th, a number of demonstrators gathered at the Greek Embassy in Dublin. They brought a large black coffin with them which they laid on the steps of the embassy as a symbol of the impending death of those on hunger strike. As one of the demonstrators put it, "Yeah this was a mock funeral but at the end of the day its not a joking matter. There are five people locked up and any of the five could die any day. Our action was sombre and a little morbid but when the situation is so serious there is little room to be upbeat. We will be back here again very soon if things do not improve."
 FROM THE NEWSWIRE:
"Focus Ireland claimed today (Nov 14th) that the new changes to the SWA rent allowance system bought in by Minister for Social and Family Affairs Mary Coughlan could actually act to increase homelessness as the safety net of private rented accommodation is removed as an option for thousands of families and single people. Focus Ireland Chief Executive Declan Jones said: “We could now have the crazy situation where a person who is working and has been renting accommodation for less than 6 months loses their job they could find themselves homeless under the new rule where Health Boards have the power to refuse rent allowance to people who have been renting for less than 6 months.”
Mr. Jones added: “With average rents running at least 800 euro a month for a 1-bed apartment this means people could be expected to pay nearly 5,000 euro in rent over 6 months before they qualify for rent supplement.” Mr. Jones added while the Minister has said there will be provisions for exceptions in relation to people who are homeless or where there are “other compelling reasons” these have not been specified and could vary significantly across different health board areas.
Focus Ireland also maintains the private rented sector has provided a “safety net” for many people nationwide (Even though rents have rocketed in recent years) to prevent them from becoming homeless while waiting for years as one of the record total of 48,413 households on the housing waiting lists.
Mr. Jones said: “This new rule could see more people in this situation being forced into homelessness if they are refused rent allowance under these new changes. It could also mean many people (Vulnerable women and children in particular) could be stuck in an abusive relationship/household or in a very unhappy relationship as they will have no other option but emergency accommodation or living on the streets if they try and leave.”
 "The leaders of the various leftist groups have decided not to participate in a site they regard as beneath their dignity. They know that they will be attacked by ireful posters in disrespectful and probably vulgar and abusive terms. The rank and file of the various vanguard revolutionary parties are obviously discouraged from going to have a look-see. Those who do speak-up for their parties usually (though not always) sign on anonymously.
Comment on content is mostly sect-ish point scoring. This can be entertaining, though more often boring and obscure. There are sometimes vigorous and illuminating debates. Even these, however, tend to be very limited in scope. The median Indymedia contributor despises the market, barely accepts that democracy exists, and assumes that the most malevolent motives move all 'bourgeois' and 'imperialist' politicians.
It's a pity that the project was not much more broadly based politically, but I suppose the zealots are always going to colonise these fora and drive out the less committed.
In all, though, I think the evolution of written word publishing has had interesting effects on the far-left, with potentially far-reaching effects. I’ll elaborate . . . . ."
The international campaign to boycott Coca-Cola scored a first victory in Ireland with the recent succesful passing of a referendum on University College Dublin's Belfield campus to ban the drink from Student Union outlets. The campaign aimed to pressure Coca-Cola into addressing the murder of union activists in its Colombian bottling plants. But now an attempt to repeal the result of the UCD referendum has led to a re-run of the referendum being planned for November 18th (evening) and 19th (all-day). Apparently as a result of the negative publicity around this issue the Coke Company will dispatch a heavy-hitter to Ireland from their head office to try and stop the campaign in its tracks.
When you drink Coca-Cola remember that you are contributing to a process which sows unemployment, hunger and pain. The young, happy image projected by Coca-Cola masks the suffering and the return of profits from Colombia to the U.S. We ask Coca-Cola to stop killing and you to stop drinking Coke.
Carlos Julia -- SINALTRAINAL
The Coca-Cola Company
has been accused of bearing responsibility for the murder of activists from the
SINALTRAINAL trade union in Colombia. These Trade Unionists are counted among the approximately 2000 Trade Unionists who have been murdered in the last decade by right-wing paramilitaries in Colombia (60% of the deaths of union activists in the World occur in Colombia). What has drawn particular attention to this case is the fact that that they both worked in bottling plants which are used by The Coca-Cola Company: Panamerican Beverages and Bebidas y Alimentos. The human-rights abuses perpetrated against such Union Activists also include the kidnapping of their children and the burning of union offices.
A significant amount of evidence to support the view that Coca-Cola is at least indirectly responsible has emerged and this has led to the growth of an international campaign which aims to pressure the multinational to do everything reasonable to protect union activities in its plants. One of the facets of this campaign is a lawsuit filed by the US United Steelworkers Union and the
International Labour Rights Fund. The Coca-Cola Company has thus far been able to escape appearing as a defendant in court, arguing that it is not responsible for the actions of companies that it employs to bottle its products. A representative of the SINALTRAINAL Union will be speaking in Belfast, Derry and UCD in the very near future to thank Irish activists who have taken part in the campaign against Coca-Cola.
One group of Irish activists, as part of this international campaign, mounted a very succesful education initiative in University College Dublin (UCD) and scored a narrow win in a referendum which banned Coca-Cola from Student Union outlets. This success occurred despite the interference of SIPTU officials (the trade union which nominally represents the interests of employees of Coca-Cola in Ireland).
Several announcements followed from activists in several other colleges and businesses indicating that they intended to spread the Campaign and keep Coca-Cola on the run, but to this happy chorus has been added the discordant voice of reaction: some students in UCD Belfield who believe that The Coca-Cola Company should not be boycotted have forced another referendum in an attempt to repeal the Coke Boycott. Interestingly, although The Coca-Cola Company doesn't even bother listing Ireland on its "World" pages, it has decided to dispatch a spin-meister to Ireland (reportedly the director of communications in Latin America, Rafael Fernandez Quiros) to claim that the campaign is based upon "urban legends".
Direct Action In Dublin
''...Theologian John
Robinson, who did a similar occupation of the same building previously, had decided that his
conscience was calling him to do so once more. He was ultimately joined by six like-minded
people, including Iraqi peace activist Nuria Mustafa (who will appear in Shannon District Court
on November 20th along with several others on charges of obstructing traffic near the airport on
June 21st). Nuria, who is currently fasting for Ramadan, prayed with John and others for the
casualties of the invasion and occupation of Iraq, in what was a truly ecumenical act of civil
disobedience. The seven constructed a shrine to the Iraqi dead, recited the Office of the Dead
and chanted Muslim prayers, as they nonviolently confronted the Aviation Authority on its
complicity in the ongoing war and occupation of Iraq.''

Mass Civil Disobedience Planned For Shannon Airport
"It is worth remembering that on February 15th more than 100,000 people marched in Dublin
against U.S. plans to invade Iraq and against Irish complicity with the American military. They
were treated with contempt by the Irish government, which ignored the huge turnout and instead
continued to assist the build up to war. Tens of thousands also marched in other urban centres and on
Shannon airport itself, and they were similiarly treated with contempt by Fianna Fail and the PDs. This
attitude persists and Shannon airport continues to be shamed by the presence of U.S. warplanes. In fact,
the airport is openly assisting the occupations of both Iraq and
Afghanistan. That is simply not acceptable."
- Fintan Lane, on the upcoming December 6th Protest at Shannon Airport led by the Irish Anti-War Movement
