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.

offsite link 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.

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

offsite link 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.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

from "Most memorable NCI experience:

"I have many pleasant memories of NCI. The free cups of tea at breaktime -......Oh yes and trying to sweet talk Mary in the library!"

hmmm.

many pages = lots of info.

lots of info,
& to survive the desert crossing from central Iraq as a refugee one must carry a minimum nine litres of water.
and grandparents. and pots and pans and spoons.
and children.
and certificates and qualifications.

Of course thanks to the prinicipled stance of Irish politicians such as Bertie Ahern refugees are not leaving Iraq accross the desert, they aren't suffering less than adacquate water supply.

They have all the medicines and food and they need, and are presently to be seen dancing in the streets celebrating

the long celebrated Irish model of democracy and post tyrant rule.

Thank you Bertie.
you really have played your part.

I think what most people want to do that fat stuttering little pimpshit goes far beyond waterbombing.

Firing him into the sun would be a good start.

Get him at the next election, bide your time, and strike with the true power that all of us have if we would just use it.

Alone of the EU states, Ireland does not allow non resident Irish citizens who still hold residency in other EU states to participate in either General or European elections.

Some excuse this non democratic anachronism as being a result of lost of Irish people being in the USA.

The USA is not the EU. Why does Ireland dis enfranchise it's European residents?

And to properly use our "mandate" we woull all need to register to vote in Bertie's constituency.

Whatever about registering to vote in b-b-b-bertie's constituency, the point is no matter how good your local FF candidate may be (I've yet to meet a one I wouldn't gladly douse in my own piss), that stuttering throwback will still be taoiseach if you go around voting for them.

Kill them in the elections, local and general, and in the meantime; red-paint, eggs, flour, water, pots pans, whatever you got...we are the people. we are the people. If Ireland is slipping into un-democracy then we must get it on the agenda, ipsiphi; you may not have a vote here but you can and do influence the people who do. keep it up.
whos gonna win world war 4.
we are.
