offsite link 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.

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.

offsite link 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

offsite link China?s CITY WIDE CASH SEIZURES Begin ? ATMs Frozen, Digital Yuan FORCED Overnight Wed Jul 30, 2025 21:40 | 1 of indy
This story is unverified but it is very instructive of what will happen when cash is removed
THIS STORY IS UNVERIFIED BUT PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO OR READ THE TRANSCRIPT AS IT GIVES AN VERY GOOD IDEA OF WHAT A CASHLESS SOCIETY WILL LOOK LIKE. And it ain't pretty

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.

Communique of the Antifascist Coalition

Warsaw 11.11.11

Again groups of the extreme right have tried to march through Warsaw. Nationalists and Neo-fascists from across Poland as well as from abroad have come to the capitol to allegedly demonstrate their patriotism. With it, they have left behind horrified residents, injured police, torn-up streets, burnt media vehicles, smashed bus stops, demolished cars.

By 9 in the morning close to 50 militant nazis with bats in-hand patrolled Trech Krzyzy square looking for a confrontation. At 11:30 another group of nationalists attacked people coming from Nowy Swiat street, but they were met with resistance. The police arrived and intervened. As the first arrests of the neo-fascists began antifascists were forced into Krytyka Polityczna, a November 11th friendly bar.

The legal gathering the “Colorful Independence” manifestation along with the antifascist blockade have come under attack from groups of neo Nazis armed with metal pipes. They have burnt the TVN news van, along with the Polsat Polish news company and Polish Radio cars, and members of the Independence March have attacked the Russian embassy and the Belvedere. Gathering at Constitution Square the “patriots” have torn up the cobblestones and attacked the police. Into the night, violent fascists roved the city, “patriots” hunting for people. The one place where you could feel safe was the antifascist zone on Marszalkowska street – thanks to the collective strength of the “Colorful Independence” manifestation and the antifascist blockade. It’s hard to imagine what would have been, if the “March of devastation in the name of Independence” would have entered the center of the city. But that, we prevented.

Now the organizers of the march, ONR (Radical Nationalist Camp) and Młodzież Wszechpolska (All Polish Youth) are counting on societies short memory, trying to distance themselves from their hooligan comrades. If they wouldn’t have destroyed the city, terrorized the public with countless injured – we might think it’s funny. But the impudence and hypocrisy of the leaders of the extreme right has long since ceased to be funny. The organizers of the Independence March invited and ushered in the most aggressive groups from all over Poland. Accompanying them in their buses were the leaders of the nationalists and hooligans and together spread their terror. The right-wing populist, Janusz Korwin-Mikke, personally encouraged violence!

Help also came from the right-wing media, who for weeks have manipulated public opinion, fueling the aggression. And how effectively: half the city demolished and terrorized from morning to night – Mr. Editors Ziemkiewicz and Struzik – these are you patriots?

For years we have warned that the extreme right is a great threat in this country. It would seem that a long list of the victims of the nationalist, neo-fascist, and racist attacks in the last months would be enough to understand the scale of the danger. Obviously not. Maybe today – Independence Day, which brought the brutal violence of the demonstration – will help the public, journalists, city hall, and all parts of society understand that the problem is real and must be fought.

If the current state continues, as antifascists from the Novemeber 11th coalition we will continue to take the streets, we will continue to barricade, we will stand in the streets and scream “no pasaran.” We see no alternative – if not us, then who?
Thank you, all Varsovians and everyone who came together with us to stand in the way of this plague. It required dedication and determination from you. You were incredible! Again we kept them from the center of the city. For an end to fascist marches under the cover of historic events. No pasaran!
