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.

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

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.

PSNI use the murder of Alan McCullough to clamp down Johnny Adairs opponents

category national | miscellaneous | opinion/analysis author Sunday June 22, 2003 00:51author by untouchable teacher's pet Johnny Adair Report this post to the editors

The PSNI are using the murder of 'C' company defector Alan McCullough as an excuse to clamp down on the reformed mainstream LPRG opponents of John 'Bulldog Blockhead' Reid's favourite/teacher's pet rabid nazi sectarian brit government lackey 'C' company crime lord Johnny Adair.

Johnny Adair himself pledged to reek vengence on 'C' company traitor Alan McCullough who shot up his wife Gina Adair's family bolthole in Bolton. Johnny's pledge has come to fruition. Yet the PSNI instead of questioning Adair and his cohorts, such as his brother James and others who remain in Belfast, about the murder, once again the PSNI have conveniently got it all wrong and gone and arrested the wrong people. Any excuse to clamp down on teacher's pet Adair's opponents. The PSNI took a similar stance in the UVF fued with Adair and C company, clamping down on the UVF whilst failing to investigate the murder of UVF man Richard Jameson. Similarly in this latest fued, once again we see the PSNI turning a blind eye to murders commited by Adair and 'C' company, such as the murder of Johnathan Stewart and others and focusing their attention on scooping up those that dare to oppose their stooge Adair. There is no evidence against Ihab Shoukri, or Mo Courtney neither of whom was picked out during subsequent identity parades by eye witnesses. The only evidence against Shoukri and Courtney is hearsay by Alan's brother Kenny McCullough. To get to the bottom of this the PSNI would be better served looking at Adair's 'C' company associates, the background and connections of Kenny McCullough, to find out exactly who betrayed Alan's trust.
The shoukris and Alan were best friends, it was because of his friendship with the Shoukris that Alan having realised what low life evil scum Adair and 'C'company were, was able to escape and free himself from the clutches and influence of Adair's 'C' company.
To date noone has been brought to book or arrested for dozens of murders commited during Adair and 'C'companies bloody brutal reign in belfast. Gavin Brett, Danny McColgan, Gerard Lawlor, Marty O Hagan, Johnathan Stewart, John Gregg and others all murdered by or at the behest of Adair and his LVF/'C'Company associates.

Notice the one sided tone of the programme, the way it makes light of murders commited by Johnny Adair and 'C' company.
The fact of the matter is John Reid encouraged ruthless, cold blooded rabid sectarian murderer Johnny Adair to try and take over the whole of the UDA, to become loyalist supremo commander of the whole of the UDA. As John Reid said he preferred to deal with one supremo UDA commander rather than the numerous brigadiers.

Johnny Adair once condemned the other UDA Brigadiers as bungling amateurs. This maybe true, the other UDA brigadiers maybe amateurs on Mad dog's scale of ruthless cold blooded murderous rabid sectarian hatred and brutal blood letting. Its precisely Adair's ruthlessness and cold blooded murderous rabid sectarianism that endears him to the british government and security force establishment and makes him the ideal agent provocateur assasin. Exactly qualities like the stiff upper lip no nonsence hard man attitude that the likes of military securocrat John 'blockhead bulldog' Reid admires. No wonder the british government and security force establishment are clamping down on the brigadiers that dared take out their favourite/teacher's pet Adair.

The brit establishment hopes that with the other UDA brigadiers banged up, they can ensure the safety of Adair and release their rabid pet Mad Dog back onto the streets of Belfast to do their murderous sectarian bidding unchallenged once more. The brit security forces do not want to have to get their own hands dirty in overt 'shoot to kill' activities, when they can get Adair to do the covert 'shoot to kill' activities for them.

Notice since Adair's been banged up there have been no more Gavin Bretts, Daniel McColgan's and Gerard lawlors shot dead on the streets of belfast.

The media have touted Gina Adair as hard as nails, 'mad bitch'. Truth is Gina's not so brave without her AK47 and her roid rage husband. Gina hides behind Johnny like a lickle school girl hides behind the skirts of her mammy. Gina couldn't beat a paper bag, or fight for herself as Johnny's other girlfriend Jackie 'Legs' found out.
