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.

Jump To Comment: 7 6 5 4 3 2 1There is presently talk of organising another fillawelly soon, this time for one of the most densely populated places on earth: Kibera, one of, if not the largest slum in Africa. To help the Tenderfeet project, set up by pastor Nick Macharia, whom I met in Genova and who left Africa for the first time to seek assistance for the work he was been at for over 20 years. If anyone is interested in getting involved email me

another stevens day, another global disaster
tsunami hits SE asia, reports that @ 24,000 dead
http://www.concern.ie/pressroom_latest.php?Ds_pressroom_latest_ToStep=step_load_news&news_id=193
fillawelly 2 will happen again on the last weekend of january
last year, @ 40 people walked, it was the worst weather ive walked in, in a long time, it was wet, very very wet
we raised @ €7,000, all of which went to bam, via trocaire emergency fund that was set up
fillawelly 2 will happen in ireland, spain, italy, so far,
perhaps fellow EASAians might do similar walks and raise cash for this emergency
that would be easy to organise, hugely meaningful and badly needed, and also a top quality fun event that everyone can freely participate in
will you?
before this dreadful event happened, we had agreed to do the walk again, and we agreed to do a "global-local" fundraiser, whereby cash would be split between, at the time darfur, and local irish "residents against racism"
http://www.indymedia.ie/newswire.php?story_id=67975&search_text=residents%20against%20racism
we had agreed to do this event every year,
it happens to fall on the celtic festival of imbolc, which marks the new lease of life, the start of spring
http://easa.antville.org/stories/935634/
fair play for checking out those details if they are there
wellie man is sending us up wellies to collect the cash in
i got his flyer from my uncles in lahinch, county clare
it is not a front for him- we approached him out of the blue, he is just beiing helpful
i dont care whether he supports hunting or not. i dont, but dont have time to sort all these little things
people are dying
Ok, so this may well be worthy of support, but has anyone checked out this 'Wellyman' website? It's got links on there to Countryside Ireland- pro-hunt lobby group- as well as the National Association of Regional Game Councils and BASC in Britain.
Can't help thinking that this is a crude attempt by hunt scum to present themselves as caring individuals in an attempt to win over support from the wider public for their more nefarious activities.
dident think of it like that
im not a muslim, i was in bam 4 and a half years ago.
but on the drink note- i was offered much raki (asian sort of putcheen) in the town before bam, yazd
im just part of a group doing what we can to get cash to people who need it. simple
i drink, i auctioned a can of beer, irish people gave money- thats positive
we hope that FILLAWELLY will be a success, and loads of money gets out there. with that less people die, more survive
inshallah
khoda fazez

An abomination! Selling alcohol for the relief of Bam. May Allah in his infinite wisdom, compassion and mercy smite you down.
the picture above is of the first FILLAWELLY that we made at Etaoins going away party in mullanahone, county tip. the party was great and we got some cash, the can of dutch gold beer was auctioned at 8.28 on the sunday morning, we got €3.85 for it.
