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

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.

BlackPope detained AGAIN

category national | anti-war / imperialism | press release author Wednesday January 21, 2004 18:08author by Anti-War 'Internal Security' Communiqué - oirish anti war movement Report this post to the editors

Suspected turncoat will now face the White Noise

A man who has for some time been under suspicion of collaborating with the State against War Activists was finally caught red-handed yesterday - here is the breaking story:
In what is for many perhaps an unsurprising development, this shadowy hate-figure known only as 'BlackPope' was seen to enter the Hynes Building in Galway (a major State cash-dispensing institution).

there is getting arrested and there is setting out to get yourself arrested. The guys a fool who sees being arrested as a badge of honour. It in some way backs up his self styled image as being a pope of anarchy. His followers must think "That guy is so great the cops are always on his case" Well I have news he is not great, the cops are on his case because he wants them to be.

Obviously liberals (probably influenced by foreign ideas) are paying pacifists to make the hard job of running the state for the benefit of George Redmond and the eFFers harder than it already is.

Time to privatise the Social Welfare.

The above comment from mister 1 editor just about somes it up.
"Personal abuse is not allowed on the newswire"
Could you care to explain why the top comment titled "Pope is a fool"has not been removed?Is fool an acceptable form of abuse?
In that case the Indymedia editors are fools.
Now you can't knock that off can you!

I think in the opinion of the poster the pope is a fool. He backs it up with allegations that he does it for the publicity. If someone were to get arrested for the sake of it then I think it would be right to call him a fool. I don't really see 'fool' as a real insult. A real insult would be something personal like his 'mother is fat' or 'he molests goats'. (Obviously not true)

Indymedia does not forbid criticism, even harsh criticism, as long as it is backed up by argument. The leading comment, although in my opinion terribly arrogant and ignorant, at least tries to make a case.

Your deleted comments, on the other hand were nothing but base abuse without so much as an attempt to justify it. They do nothing other than show what a moron you are and so you should be happy to have them deleted.

After three days of intense physical torture, the GAW inquisitors shifted to psychoterror in a desperate attempt to break the BlackPope. In this foto he contemplates a celestial vision during a smoke-break from the rigours of interrogation.

He was then subjected to White Noise - a loop-tape of Richard Boyd-Barret's greatest speeches - over a four day period, whilst being softened up with the old Galway truth-serum, a.k.a. "Buckfast and Spliff Cocktail".

However, the plan backfired badly - BlackPope laughed so much his stitches almost bust, and his only confession was to repeatedly bellow "more truth-serum, ye's barsterds ye's!" and "bring on the Kieran Allen tape, fuck-witts!"

GAW's whole stash of Bucky and grade-A Lebanese Gold was eventually exhausted by the voracious BlackPope, who was then expelled from the safe-house pending the arrival of fresh stocks.

A GAW bat-man said that a vote will be taken at the upcoming Security Council meeting on Jan 31st to decide whether to further expend precious chemicals or to conserve supplies by banishing BlackPope back to the Nether regions north-east of Ardee.

God bless 'im, but the Black Pope is one mean baaad arsed mothafuka with what seems to be a fondness for Bucky and primo gear - If the Irish Anti-War Movement had an army of his ilk, we would win the peace overnight.?
