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.

Annie-Body: "Why not have a 'Free Party' which is properly organised and policed for the benefit of EVERYONE not just you people!!"
That's exactly what happens.
This one made me smile. I can't understand why someone could get so upset because a few people dance, socialise, entertain and be entertained for a few hours on a bamk holiday.
Don't believe the hype. It's a party, not a protest and definitely not a protest.

I think its a disgrace you people just taking over the city like that, hellbent on causing chaos. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
Why not have a 'Free Party' which is properly organised and policed for the benefit of EVERYONE not just you people!!
For God's sake, someone could get hurt!!
Or is that the plan???
is NOT intended to be a riot. It is a free party for anyone and everyone. All welcome. I'm pretty sure with the media coverage of last year, the gards will be on their best behavior.

are also the May 6th people.
before you hit someone on the head or kick the shit out of them think about their tomorrow.
you guys are a bunch of wasters. you don't understand real world politics and economics at all. you should travel and see the world then you will see why globalisation is right and good. by the way, the war in iraq was good too, its a shame that the anti war movement is so racist : white people can be free from tyranny, but its ok for Iraqis to be brutalised by Saddam. Get a life.
Hope the guards kick the shit out of the May 5th people, deserve it interrupting everyone elses day. selfish ignorant bastards.

Why don't you do it today, or tomorrow, or whenever you like for that matter, nobody's stopping you and you can be as rad as you like. You can even be your very own Rich boy!
If you want to make suggestions and criticisms about our events, our meetings are open to all, so you can get involved. For some reason I don't think that we take these type of anonymous criticisms on indy too seriously.
"Don't forget...

Bet he is, or his twin... or doppleganger
Supporters of the tribal people of Indonesian occupied West Papua will visit the ancient ceremonial site of Uisineach in Co. Westmeath for a May Day (or ‘Beltaine’) ceremony and council.

Feck the guards!
Three different times have been given for the march. IAWM say 6.30 pm, SF say 7.30pm but the Dublin Council of Trade Union leaflets say 7 pm.
There will be a West Papua-Ireland ceremony and tribal council on the hill of Uisineach to mark the coming of summer, the season and fertility of Beltaine which begins today.
Protest-vigil at Dutch embassy Thursday May 1, 11am-1pm
40 years ago on May 1st, 1963, the Indonesian flag was raised over West Papua, marking the annexation of West Papua and the brutal suppression of a nation. Formerly run by the Netherlands and for seven months by the United Nations, the world community turned a blind eye as the West Papuans were sacrificed to the interests of “real-politik” and corporate greed.
The question of West Papua is unfinished business for both the United Nations and the Netherlands. The Netherlands continues to be silent on the on-going genocide in West Papua, as it seeks to maintain “cordial” political and economic relations with its former colony, Indonesia.

40 years ago on May 1st, 1963, the Indonesian flag was raised over West Papua, marking the annexation of West Papua and the brutal suppression of a nation.
Formerly run by the Netherlands and for seven months by the United Nations, the world community turned a blind eye as the West Papuans were sacrificed to the interests of “real-politik” and corporate greed.
The question of West Papua is unfinished business for both the United Nations and the Netherlands.
The Netherlands continues to be silent on the on-going genocide in West Papua, as it seeks to maintain “cordial” political and economic relations with its former colony, Indonesia.
When East Timor was taken over by Indonesia in 1975, its former colonizer, Portugal, spoke out and supported self-determination for East Timor. However, the Netherlands has stayed silent on the question of West Papuan self-determination, and thus, as a central party, is directly complicit in genocide.
West Papua, north of Australia, is the western half of New Guinea island. At least 100,000 West Papuans have been killed since 1963. Some observers have put the figure as high as 300,000.
