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

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.

DIRECT ACTION AT SHANNON DEC 8th

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday November 21, 2002 19:47author by Chief Supt Pat Byrne - The pigs Report this post to the editors

To make the protest at Shannon on December 8th as effective as possible we need direct action. The action on the last occasion provided a good example of the possibilities. With larger numbers committed to this sort of action we will be able to threaten the US use of Shannon. It would be useful if all the groups running buses to Shannon posted details on indymedia I understand that there is a bus from Cork leaving from outside the Opera House at 10.00am People should begin discussing now how far they are prepared to go things like breaking the law, tearing down fences, getting arrested, blocking roads etc. Form affinity groups so that if you are lifted someone knows and can help you out. Each contingent should get a few to volunteer as photographers or video persons. See you all at Shannon and probably Dublin

The only point in goin to the Dublin demo is to buy a ticket to Shannon, unless of course enough of us are interested in having some fun at the embassy. Any takers?

no of course not, it is peaceful after all....

sad really, hope ye have all been reading teh facts too bout planes being refuelled here for years, not just usa planes, but russian ones before..
as for a B2 bomber or a B52 stelth landing in shannon!!!!!!! ha ha
B2's can go from usa to afghan and back without refuelling
and as for stealth bombers they refuel mid air so they will never never never need to land in shannon
for all yere facts and figures ye really are a dumb crowd of low lifes.
get real!!!!!!! life will go on irrespective of the petty disturbances ye cause

All US military planes have inflight refuelling capability - even the B 52. It costs far more to refuel a plane mid-air or to fill a plane with fuel and fly with the fuel tanks completely full. So planes refuel at stopover points - it's a more economical way to slaughter innocents! Get your facts right....

you know America through her movies, propaganda, historiography, logos, emails, websites, her aircraft that first landed with Lindburg in Mayo, her Presidents seven only one of whom invoked New Ross, her flag and her architecture on the Merrion Road some vicious slight to Joycean Lore.
Her propaganda and her hollywood is a poor imitation of any Hazel wand, any seanachaoi, as open to the wind as any naked emperor´s clothing.

There are meetings across the country, and on the day to discuss tactics, somewhat unlike Oct. 12th.

Alternatvily perhaps you would like if we just phoned up Harcourt Sq. and gave them a detailed plan, complete with names and addresses.

the Blue Block don´t keep all their intelligence in one easy to find place.
For info on cavalcades, street control and cars and the VIP list (as gaeilge an bodach mór list) goto Dublin Castle.
For computer and paper files on "militant activists" go to Harcourt Street south building.
For computer and paper files on "subversive political elements and spookies" go to the Phoenix Park, for harmless "careless chat costs pensions" goto Harrington Street Garda Club or the Garda Golf Course (great place for mushrooms).
There is a little blue van with GARDA written on the side which transfers really important files from one site to the other, usually on tuesday afternoons. There is also a "GARDACHAT" yahoo group, where you can talk to Gardaí online flirt, cajole etc.,
The Blue Block in Ireland use a shredder bought in 1997, fairly old technology I would rather eat my paper files then use one of those things, but anyway, the shredded paper get´s transported to the Garda incinerator along with the drugs and other awful stuff on the first thursday of the month.
If you want to have a google at these lever arch files, you could consider backing the whole Gardaí Siochanna organisation into an embarrasing failure corner and thus pre-empt a five year expensive inquiry which would probably be held in Dublin Castle. Only indymedia activists with NUJ identification will get within photographing distance of the files on the big table though.

Alternatively you could try the yahoogroup thing and flirt with members of the Gardaí, vulnerable ex-alcoholic guards may be the best targets for such investigative techniques, wait till you´re at least three months into the relationship to pop the "would you use this toprange mini-digital-camera to copy the "lever arch files" ...darling.

it might be difficult but you´ll be doing your bit for the evolving revolution.

Alternatively you could "go over their heads", now this really is very very easy to do.
I´ll direct keen and able activists to my pamphlet "how to go over the heads of the Gardaí".
meanwhile just read my RTS day statement to the blueblock, required preliminary reading for stud of the more "esoteric" texts. And if anyone has a lot of sellotape it would help, over in Barcelona we have the kindergarten bunch fitting the shredded paper together every Saturday morning between 10am and 3pm.

I'd be very much interested in coming down to Shannon to camp out and protest however could someone prefferably by email breenson@iol.ie fill me in on the details of how to get to the site etc.
