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.

The Fightback Against Politicised Art Has Begun Wed Oct 08, 2025 15:27 | Ferro
The public's indifference to art has never been greater. No wonder, says Ferro: it's all just tired Left-progressive politics by another means. But the fightback for real art that moves the human soul has begun.

photography is not always the greatest for context, and this is an example.
yeah shes ok, released yesterday, will be up in court with 14 others on 17th april. the stick stuff is JAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha, I bet you were all delighted at the thought of another protestor bleeding, maybe it will get on the news tonight and hopefully whatever "automoton pig" carried it out wasn't wearing an identity badge. most of the time this "independent news service" is simply a line of crusties whinging about their latest exploits hurling themselves in front of batons. look at my broken rib, look at my bleeding head. This is what the protest movement means for a lot of people.
laugh at these people if you like, but I think of them as heros - not because they got hurt but because they put their ass on the line. The others that were not hurt were just luckier(perhaps a bit smarter?) than those who did get hurt.
We need to support our own (from whatever political leaning or membership), why? because no one else will.
Caoimhe daubed some of the red substance (which I think was jam) onto one of the riot squad's shields, totally nonagressively, and was dragged off by the hair.
A brave person following her conscience deserves respect and I give it to her freely. We need more people like Caoimhe if we are to achieve a society of peace and democracy.
Personally I lean more towards favouring a more aggressive interaction with the police from a tactical standpoint, but I respect her stance and principles.
Wish I had half her bravery. She inspires me.
I know a good psychiatrist...he could maybe straighten out the heap of garbage on the top of your shoulders. Or has your brain already migrated to yer asshole.

So you admit PSNI are wifebeaters, and from your gentlemanly attitude it appears you actively encourage PSNI officers to beat defenceless women. I can see you're salivating at the mouth at the thought of Caoimbe being dragged by the hair, I suppose this is the way you're use to communicating with your submissive wife/desperate whore girlfriend, drag the lickle lady along by her hair, very galant and gentlemanly. 'Play by big boys rules?' We didn't see any big boys in uniforms, if they were so big and hard they wouldn't have needed to wear so much protective gear and hide behind masks. Gosh it's very big and hard to beat a defenceless young lady, when you're wearing so much protective gear and when you're armed with batons. I'd like to get you in an alley way by yourself, with no witnesses, then we'll see whose the hard man.
An alleyway, just you and me, you without your protective gear, your batons/weapons and your mates. No witnesses. Me as I am, with no weapons, but only if you promise not to go squealing/crying to your mates when I beat the fuk out of you.
Just goes to show the stupidity of the PSNI goons, stupid bastards fell right into that one. PSNI are raging cos they were caught out beating peaceful lady protestors, after all their SPIN about being 'REFORMED!!' HA, HA, HA, the last laugh's on PSNI bozos.
PSNI GOONS Don't forget to give Andre prior warning before you jump him, leave you're mates at home, if you're soo hard. Don't just pop him, the way youse did William Stobie.
i read a lot on the mideast and didn't quite know how to start to help. then, i read about caoimhe 'the irish butterfly' taking on tanks in behalf of the children in palestine, and taking a hit; i emailed all over the place in her behalf. that started my developing a solidarity campaign. today, we are many and i am u.s. committee representative for the international human rights march in palestine and israel, sheduled for september and organized by women's international league for peace and freedom, oslo, norway. caoimhe inspired many and continues to do so. her strength is our strength, and struggle is inspiring others to follow in her path. a new world is possible! dorinda moreno, west coast, (turtle island), u.s.a.
