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.

offsite link 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.

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.

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.

Luke wrote to me today,and he split so rung,i wundurud if it iz all a bit of a ploy myself.Might post it up,see if I can get the IP number.If this is the case,it means the Gardai have my IP number,because I wrote a reply to Luke,which,for fun,I will post up on the News board.However,I have written to the Garda Press Office on a number of occasions,so,despite September the 11th,they know I'm just an irate citizen WHOSE BLOOD BOILS WHEN PSYCHO THUGS BELT WOMEN.

May the Lord God blast them(psycho thugs,not ordinary,decent members of the Gardai,just in case they might be inclined to arrest me under some anti witchcraft act from 1607 or something for attempting to curse them) with furious rage,thus will they answer to the Universe,Amen.

On the udder hand,we cud be geggin bit far of owsels by tinking luke is gard when acshully he is angry retrad boy...

I am just off to ring the FBI and get their advice on whether I should have dinner now or in an hours time.

Anyone with a titter of wit knows that the lad could have been starved out or coaxed out quite easily. He asked for a solicitor, which they would not proivde. They would not let him speak to family members. They would not give him cigarettes (increasing his stress and panic). He should have been in hospital anyway - but they would not take him when his mother brought him there a few days before.
Oh, and it's not "all from the papers" - in that case in particular I know about it 'cos I'm from near Abbeylara.

What the hell, just believe what the Garda PR office churns out. Is your real name Paul Williams, by any chane??

Fair play to u mags U r after cracking about 7 crimes allready to day. U don t now the facts of any of these ceases. Only what u read in the newspapers.

As ur comment "Yes, like when they riddled a mentally ill man with bullets from automatic weapons. But it was only their job" The only problem at here was that guy should have been shot before he had then chance to let of rounds from his gun. He fired at the garda. Aswell 7 hrs before he was shot the FBI advised the garda to shot this man. He may b mentally ill but he was a treat to the public and the garda.
If a member of the public was shot by him u'd be the first to say it's the garda fault.

only following orders...

Yes, like when they riddled a mentally ill man with bullets from automatic weapons. But it was only their job.

Only doing their job by setting up people in Donegal for long jail sentences and 'finding' and then planting explosives so they could 'find' them again and get promotion.

Only for our good that the top brass took millions of pounds and free golfing holidays from a tyre company.

Only part of the job to make up confessions for a wretched junkie and hold him for a year for two murders he could not have committed. But then he got out and died, so no need to investigate any further.

Merely part of the work description to import millions of pounds worth of drugs and take backhanders off the dealers. And give them dogy passports to get out of the country.

Society is much safer when community activists and their families are raided, harassed, arrested and tried (and finally acquitted or charges dropped).

Not to mention the (at least two) coppers tried in the past year for attemptiong to procure children for prostitution.

Just a few examples. But I must stop being cynical - Luke tells us it's all part of the job. They must provide training in these areas at Templemore.

Brilliant party and organisation - well done to every one who put such a massive amount of effort in to- if you are all students then my previously low opinion of students is massively revised upwards. If you are all wasters you're the coolest bunch of wasters I ever met - If you are all scum then lets get low down and scummy some more

Enjoyed DJing immensely most receptive dance floor i EVER SAW !

well done to all concerned with the RTS gig.

better and bigger every time - a cool way to spend a sunday afternoon after the pressures of a week at work.

contributing to businesses in the area with people buying food and drink to relax in the streets, instead of having cars clogging up the city for the afternoon.

roll on next year may day.

dont forget the critical mass at the last friday of the month, hopefully going on thru the winter.

love and kisses to all (including trolls.. you are always welcome to come to our party and enjoy yourself with a beer and some dancing)

for a better dublin, reclaim the streets - reclaim the city - reclaim your life
