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. The Saker >>

 MAY DAY 1886 - 2014
The struggle for a new society without exploitation and oppression from human to human continues...
128 years after the workers’ insurrection in Chicago on May 1st 1886, the proletarians, the poor and the excluded are faced with the savage attack of the state and bosses.The subversion of the conquests, which were the result of bloody class and social struggles, like the one for the 8-hour workday, aims to the total imposition of modern slavery upon society.
The radical message of the insurrection of Chicago May Day is always present as long as the everyday struggles for free access to the basic social goods, for decent working and life conditions are connected with the overall struggle for the subversion of the state and capitalism and the vision for individual and social liberation is kept alive within them.
In today’s conditions of overall crisis of the system, the attack of the rulers for the violent restructure of authority, exploitation, and oppression mechanisms in order to form a society dominated by fear, submission,control, individualization, fascism becomes a war against the poorest and plebian social parts.
In the workplaces of paid slavery exploitation is intensified, basic rights are abolished (such as the 8-hour workday, social security, collective labour agreements) and fear prevails due to the extortion of unemployment which is rising. Social exclusions from health, housing, work, education, transports are growing and multiplied condemning larger and larger social groups into wretchedness,poverty and death. Social cannibalism and fighting among the poor is stirred up from above so that social and class rage is defused within the class of the oppressed and not turned against the real responsible for the looting of our lives, that is the state and bosses. The fierce repression and slander of the social, class and political struggles is a basic priority of the state in order to impose its antisocial plans, while the most radical and militant parts of the resistances like the anarchists are attempted to be struck exemplarily for the terrorism of the whole society. The murderous fascist hit teams are used to act parallel with the official repressive forces, to attack and terrorize all those who resist the state and bosses’ brutality. The weakest and most wretched social groups like immigrants without papers and refugees face the murderous hunt of the military and international police forces at the borders, the police racist pogroms in the cities, while the condition of exclusion is imposed on them through their confinement in the modern concentration camps.
From our side, the side of the workers, the poor, the plebians of this world, the history of class and social struggles shows us that proletarians have got nothing to expect from the institutions, parliaments, elections, the bureaucratic leaderships of the unions and the mediators of class struggle who converse with the bosses pleading for their charity; that whatever there is be to gained, is going to be the result of their wide, organized on the basis, militant and radical struggles. Only the overall subversion of state and capitalism, the social expropriation of the wealth we ourselves produce and is being sucked by a caste of authoritarians, the organized from below social and class counterattack, the revolution for a new society of common ownership, solidarity and freedom can justify the desires and true social needs of the oppressed of the globe.
... until the subversion of the world of the state and capital, the global social revolution, anarchy and communism.
