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.

info on Russia and Georgia co-operation on border controls:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/2305729.stm
and Russia and China doing a deal today on
gas.
keen readers will remember that the Russians are very keen to find customers for their gas reserves. a trusted corespondant wrote a piece long ago on the training vessel "CARDOV" which sailed the mediterranean on "a good will" mission supporting Russian hopes of sharing their gas with Europe, bringing joint European and Russian gas/ oil reserves to 23% of global supplies.
Russia has lots of gas, but not much more. And that doesn´t even sound funny anymore after the Moscow theatre.
Magic mushrooms are available in Ireland from September to October, and are called psylocybin selomenceata (i´ve mispelled the latin).
They are very good containing psylocybin and only two other minor toxines. Magic mushrooms in Georgia though are different, mushrooms of the Irish type are confined to western temporate regions of Europe, the traditional celtic fringe. Georgia however has a more toxic variety. I suspect the russian soldier was on fly agaric.
Being red mushrooms with white spots, these are very bad for you and I warn readers not to try them. leave them for the pixies fairies and elves. They´re much better at that type of thing.
serious stuff on GAS:
MOSCOW. Nov 29 (Interfax-China) - Russia-China trade turnover might reach $20-30 billion over the next few years, Deputy Prime Minister Viktor Khristenko told Interfax prior to Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to China.
Bilateral trade stood at $9.84 billion in the first ten months of 2002. "This tendency is likely to continue," said Khristenko. "This year's turnover might total about $12 billion," he said.
"Russia and China are about to begin the implementation of large- scale projects in the energy and natural resource spheres," he said. For instance, Gazprom is participating in the construction of the Tarim- Shanghai mainstream gas pipeline. The two countries have forged strategic cooperation in the gas sphere, he said.
Russia and China "are working on energy projects related to the development of gas deposits in Eastern Siberia and the Far East," Khristenko said.
"Our objective is to raise the share of hi-tech and engineering products in trade with China over the next few years," he said. Talks are underway for supplies of Russian equipment for the new Huanghua heat and power plant and expansion of the capacity of the two existing plants.
Furthermore, Moscow and Beijing will boost cooperation in the nuclear power sector, he said. The construction of the Taiwan nuclear power plant is proceeding on schedule.
Russian telecom operators might gain access to the Chinese market, Khristenko said. China's intention to provide access to Russian companies marked an important breakthrough. The intention was stipulated in a joint communiqu© adopted at the seventh meeting of the two heads of government in Shanghai in August 2002.
Moreover, machines and equipment accounted for $2.29 billion of Russia's exports to China in 2001, up almost 8.5 times from 2000, he said.
"Cooperation in the aluminum sector has been forged in the past year," he said.
Russia asked China to participate in the construction of an aluminum plant in the Irkutsk region, and in the development of a large bauxite deposit in Guinea

I belive the 'traditional' 'russian' idea with fly's is to sundry them and then ingest... ie; harvest during the season and then use as needed, a very colorful intoxication as far as i have heard it.
Soldiers are guillible slaves, anyone who puts on a uniform, to serve queen and cuntry, getting paid crap wages, for risking life, limb and sanity to do the States dirty work, is an easily led guillible fool. Soldiers follow orders of their superiors, Soldiers are programed not to think for themselves, to follow orders blindly, they are class traitors who will follow any order given by the state, to cross/break up picket lines, to shoot civillians and children, and to do anything to protect the rich and their class/social superiors.
