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
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.

Jump To Comment: 4 3 2 1We will start to gather from 2pm at Giuseppe Conlon Hall. There will be audiovisuals rolling
around the room of some of the last 3 years of Bradley Manning solidarity in London.
There will be an opportunity to chat and network during this time.
Here's a taster of some of the solidarity vids.....
GUARDIAN VID (3 mins) - Veterans for Peace & other Vet at Occupy LondonSX
http://tinyurl.com/ppv8bbp
Irish Music Vid (6 mins) "Free Bradley Manning" by The RoJ LiGht
http://tinyurl.com/knxrjta
YOUTUBE (6 mins)- Julian Assange Subterranean Homesick Blues - filmed in Dylan's original 1965 alleyway!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGb9pqcz3_Y
At 3pm formal speeches and music will begin.
This will end at 5pm.
We will keep the venue open until 6.30pm for more chatting and networking
and then head to the Beaconsfield Pub on Green Lanes, Harringay.
Journalists and bloggers covering closing arguments in the military trial of Wikileaks source Bradley Manning are reporting a far more intense security climate at Ft. Meade today, as compared to the past two months of court proceedings. @carwinb, @kgosztola, @nathanLfuller, and @wikileakstruck have tweeted about armed guards standing behind them as they type into laptops in the designated press area, and extensive physical searches.
I visited the trial two weeks ago, and while there were many restrictions I found surprising (no mobile devices allowed in the press room), it wasn't this bad. Tweets from some of them are below; there are about 40-50 reporters present and not all are tweeting. Internet access is spotty today. Oh, wait; as I type this blog post, I'm now seeing updates that they're being told they are not allowed to access Twitter. So there's that.
REPORT CONTINUED....

Bradley Manning Solidarity Sat July 27th. events
http://tinyurl.com/mytw23n
London (1)
Where and when
St Martin in the Fields, London, WC2N 4JJ (Trafalgar Square) 14:00 – 16:00.
Description
Vigil called by Payday Men’s Network. All welcome. Contact Giorgio via payday@paydaynet.org
London (2)
Where and when
Amnesty International office - 1 Easton St, London, WC1X 0DW (Clerkenwell) 16:00 – 18:00.
Description
Peaceful vigil. Supporters of Bradley gathering to continue pressure on AI to give public support to Bradley, including prisoner of conscience status.
It is worth noting the three recent statements issued by Amnesty – at the start of the trial, after the prosecution case on ‘Aiding the Enemy charge‘ and on this week’s ruling not to dismiss ’Aiding the Enemy’, which they described as a ‘travesty of justice’.
Alongside comments made here by Widney Brown, senior director of international law and policy for AI, it appears that the recent, concerted and continuing attempts to force AI to speak up are having an effect, and people are working hard to obtain a bolder stance from them.
London (3)
(handily timed after the above – can you make all three?!)
Where and when
Calder Bookshop and Theatre – 51 The Cut, London, SE1 8LF (Waterloo). 19:00 -21:00.
Description
Readings, poetry and open mic. This will include a reading of the Bradley Manning: ‘In His Own Words’ script adapted by Lindi from the chat log extracts, and other poetry associated with Brad. Contact Sergio at Calder Bookshop and Theatre.
