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.

b) don't supply said dicatators with chemical and biological weapons, and military advisors.
c) don't be surprised when they decide to get too big for their boots
d) don't impose economic sanctions that kill 1 million people in ten years
e) don't go to war to remove the rascals (or 'new hitlers'). don't use cluster bombs. don't use DU. don't bomb market places. don't bomb russian diplomats. don't fire on journalists. don't fire on busses. oh yeah, and did I mention, don't go to war.
not that i beleive this war is about democracy, human rights or WMDs, it is of course about oil and imperialist comtrol and teh upcoming elections - with a little bit of good ole raghead bashing thrown in for good measure.
The US has been trying very hard to avoid civilian casualties, but it is not always possible and sometimes screw-ups occur. This is the case with the Israeli Defence Forces as well. I know this for a fact.
Aunty USA needs to spend more time collecting facts and less time listening to her old Jefferson airplane albums. There's just TOO much evidence out there to contradict you, old girl. Maybe you'd better focus your limited talents on saving whales or snail darters.
Hey I heard that the English used Ireland as a whorehouse for 800 years? I want to come over and try out some of the local girls. Who wants to introduce me to their sister?
Gee, If you have a "good" enemy any atrocity is OK apparently.
This is an old story in US history. You should read some of the historical accounts of the "red savages"
But the US is running out of "good" enemies. Pakistan will probably be a major worry for them in the near.
Any way you look at it a thermonuclear war is probably coming to your home soon.
I hope all the yankee-doodle cheerleaders enjoy the next level of atrocity.
Leaving out a bit og history eh? The situation in IRAQ whre a murderous dictator runs peolple through plastic choppers, violates the UN regulations and murders over a million, mostly civilians, is a dictator YOU seem to support. The part you left out was the US removed Noriega as he was crazed. We removed your leftist elete from Granada etc etc - get it right.
That the USA saw its mistakes in putting dictators to run 3rd world countries.Now we were wrong and are cleaning up,and all the rest of the world bitches and moans.Sheesh there is no pleasing some people
by those 'liberated' in "operation just cause" in panama, i was being sarcastic, referring to the several thousand civillian casualties. i want to be clear. oh yeah, and don't forget the US's favorite guy in the region, pinochet. he was a great liberator, too.
just like the US supported regimes in south america left the countries they were 'liberating' better places. we all know that the us sponsored contras certainly did much to improve the life of the average nicaraguan citizen, and of course we cannot forget the liberators of panama ("operation just cause"), what were there, a coupla thou?, all liberated, much freer than they were the day before, from that former-CIA backed thug named Manuel Noriega...
hmmm... this case bears striking similarities to the case presently before us... one of a dictator who was formerly backed by the CIA... and armed and aided by the US...
strange, isn't it. that all these 'problems' that the US have are mainly of their own making.
but no worries... what's new on TV this week?
Never before has so much care been taken to avoid civilian casualties in a war. A fact not lost on the Iraquis, as evidenced by the use of human shields. Here's a question, do you think the Iraqis would care if the US used human shields?
Obviously you've either been doing too many drugs or you're still upset that you're only making minimum wage and failing at integrating into society.
No one ever in history, not ever, has done so much to ensure the safety and welfare of civilians and especially women and children during this conflict.
When coalition forces leave Iraq, it will be a better place. The formerly progressive Arab society there will be able to return and flourish, and the Iraqi people will be ever grateful for their liberation.
Protesters will find some other outlet for their hatred when their idiotic attempts at reason fall to pieces. Save the cockroaches, maybe? Oh, the inhumanity!
