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.

Bunny, you just made your point in your article totally irrelevant by accusing someone of being racist, even though it has since been made very clear otherwise. A public apology has been issued by the Sunday Independent to that effect in relation to the 'joke' which was taken totally out of context.
Get your facts right and stop throwing around the word racist as if it was confitti, its not only irresponsible but dangerous.
This is a disgrace! Enda & Pat were in the same government as Lowry! Oh, lets nail them up then. Crucifying is too good for them I say!! This silly, guilty-by-association idea is just weak journalism.
Ok, lets see, Ghandi lived in South Africa for a while, South Africa had a policy of treating blacks as second-class citizens, Ghandi is a racist!
Enda Kenny has nothing to be ashamed of from his role in the rainbow government. He was not 'on the take', even if his cabinet colleague was. Fine Gael deal with corruption - Lowry was kicked out and is never coming back, because Fine Gael does not tolerate that. We are the party of national interest before self-interest, always were, always will be. Of course, its ok for most of the current cabinet to turn a blind eye to gross mismanagement of the public finances, and 'Blank Cheque Bertie' was no way in the wrong for supplying Charles Haughey with the means to abuse high office and destroy public confidence in politics for years!
Get with the issues! If you want to write about scandals in Irish life, look at our schools, our roads, our hospitals, in fact any our of our public services, and ask yourself how they manages to get WORSE during the last 5 years of unparalleled wealth in this country. Fianna Fail ensured that the rich dined out, and continued to pretend that they truly are the party of the small man! Ha! That’s a scandal well worth writing about.
Master Munnelly,
Shall we see you in the high court
claiming you've been brainwashed
by some insiduous cult called young
fine gael?
In the High Court, no I don't think so. When I am asked why I am in Young Fine Gael, I just ask people to look at YFG's record over the past 25 years, and in how we raised important issues such as abortion, divorce, the European project, etc, when every other political movement was afraid to do so. If you look at some of the social reforms of the past 25 years (such as the abolition of illegitimacy), you will find that YFG was instrumental in bringing them about, and still is instrumental in making Irish society fairer and just.
Jay Munnelly of Young blueshirts should write to Tony O Reilly's right wing news rags and stop boring indymedia readers. You are a pathetic little right wing blueshirt gobshite, you might think jokes about N***** by your boring party leader is ok, but an apology is just not good enough.
Telling racist jokes is a racist act. Context my ass. It is only proper that the Fine Gael party, with its origins in the Fascist Blueshirt movement, be led by a racist. Kenny is true to his party's roots. And no doubt Sir Tony O'Reilly does not like this fact been known.
Where it was exposed that Boring Kenny did meet with Dennis O Brien at the time of the great ESAT mobile licence hijack.
an out of context joke hijacked by a certain anti Fine Gael newspaper attempted to drum up a campaign to damage the party. a blatant hatchet job .when they saw no one was buying their rubbish they dropped the story quicker than Irelands growth rates under Charlie Mcreevy
