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.

Thirty Left-wing MPs have written to Ofcom to press it to censor X under the Online Safety Act. The evidence of 'hate' on the platform is threadbare, but it's obvious why they want to clip its wings, says Laurie Wastell.

British TV Comedy Has Lost its Class Sat Nov 22, 2025 17:00 | Finlay McLaren
The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

As for when Ive ever been abroad my views have actually gone down quite well, most countries absolutely despising the Brits.
I shudder to think what impression you make abroad. Most countries actually get quite upset when another one invades them and murders its citizens.
Yes Barry and Andy, that would be totally hilarious wouldn't it. Someone getting murdered in a phone box. What's your problem? You're a complete embarassment to yourself with sad views like that and I shudder to think the impression you make on other nations when you travel abroad
They should make an episode about the time the RUC mistook an SAS unit for the provos in the 70s. The final one they riddled after a huge case was in a phonebox trying to ring the barracks and call them off. That would be truly priceless, and quite amusing too.
I think you are all being unfair to the media and those gallant boys in Hereford. These tv series are hysterical, does anyone remember BRAVO 2 ZERO, where those brave boys successfully got lost and then shot by the stupid Iraqis, priceless.
think bodie and doyle running about in their under pants, then think grant mitchell running about in his underpants posing with big guns, helicopters and explosions. Updated 'who dares wins/who bores wins'
militant anarcho heads?
has anyone noticed how the "enemies of civilisation" are getting poorer?
I mean back when I was a wee buachail
the enemies were poor working class folk of the north and everywhere else but the big one was
SOVIET UNION SUPERPOWER.
then somewhere about 1995 when I got my beloved Irish passport with the name the anagram, some Jordanian secret service types started passing papers speculating that a certain Sheik Yussof Haj Bin Laden of Yemen with only $300,000,000 personal wealth was going to be "enemy of civilsation" now they make TV about anarchoheads being the enemy?
silly isn´t it?
and yeh I´m a spam head.
and mabe even a "gouger" but there you go.
TV is toxic.
and cars are too.
RECLAIM THE STREETS!
under your feet.
yeah
with aidan as the meglo maniac media mogul he has to defeat.
I can't wait. I'm waiting for the seies staring Billy brag as a karate expert marxist fighter who must fight his way past the evil CWI, SWP USFI workers power fighters to create the true revolutionary party. Maybe a love interest with Venessa Redgrave and Gerry Healy as the side kick
It's just crap TV Justin. Do you have nothing better to girn about. ITV have Ross Kemp on a 'golden handcuffs' deal worth oodles of cash, so they've got to do something with an 'actor' who can only manage 'pissed off' or 'tough-guy' expressions and can't handle any phrase longer than 'Let's do it'.
Of course, a series about our favourite paramilitaries in the North (TM) would be much better, wouldn't it? The boys could be portrayed in the bosom of loving families, sitting up all night tending their sick dogs, reciting Thomas Davis, and writing poetry, before ridding our oppressed state of some hapless builder or something who was so ideologically mistaken as to earn a living fixing the drains in an army base. After a few years of this, they could retire to run our schools, maybe.
Hey ITV - where's the cash?
Yes, apparently the way they covered up the death figures is by naming the regiment the soldier was previously in, implying that this was the one he was in when he was stiffed by the thick bog-trotting paddies. But no-one joins the SAS direct, they apply from their previous regiment.
This cover-up method is handy, as is the old 'car crash in Cyprus' ploy.
When will we ever read the truth about the sas involvement in the north?
Officially only a handful of sas assassins died in the north. but it has now been revealed that 30 sas men killed in Ireland have been buried in their Regimental cemetery in Sterling Lines, Hereford (8 died from self inflicted wounds). This does not include those given family burials elsewhere. Two including the celebrated Captain Robert Nairac have never been found. (Anyone who ate pork products sourced in north Louth in late 1977 should be feeling queasy at this stage.)
All this came to light when the sas were applying for planning permission for a new cemetery to be located at Credenhill, outside Hereford town. The old cemetery is now full. Hopefully the new one will soon be bursting at the seams!
