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.

A Coalition has been formed consisting mainly of unafiliated individuals and we plan to move very quickly towards a referendum and a successful campaign.
Anybody who thought that there were for some crazy sectarians on indymedia - you ain't seen nothing yet. This should be a good laugh..
You stooge of CWI sectism.
I cannot tell. You must appreciate this like having the Third Secret of Fatima revealed to you by the Pope. If I squealed the puppies would come after my cat (Pushkin).
Pat, what did Boyd tell you about the dumping of Joan? And why won't you tell us.
Your not buying the 'she doesn't want to run' line?
i was putting joe harringtons actions in context. joe obviously felt that he was best put forward anti imperialist politics by using the event as a platform to condemn clintons policies.
i was also correcting the errors made by the spart(?).
my feline friend "cat p" once again shows that he has the reasoning and analytical abilities of a 3 year old mule.
I don't see what pats critisisms of Militant have to do with this topic. Neither do I see what the record of the USFI has to do with this topic. The USFI nor the Militant were mentioned in the original post. This is trolling.
"This organisation in fact is under threat of expulsion by Lulas henchmen due to their opposition to the cutbacks."
I accept that organisations can support wider formations, join them , support them etc. I have no problem with the USFI supporting the PT so long as they are critical of Lula's drift to the right. And that they don NOT ENTER GOVERNMENT.
The USFI have taken seats at the cabinet table. No Socialist should be sitting down in a bourgeois government that presides over cuts etc. Socialists should take positions in Parliaments so that they can voice their concerns to workers from their position. Taking a place in government or voting for a government does nothing but discredit the USFI.
Pat blames Militant for the crimes of the Labour Party in the 70s and 80s. However Militant never took a seat in cabinet and always opposed coalition government. Pat attacks Militant for their entryism into Labour, but not the USFI. The USFI are taking seats in Lula's bourgeois cabinet for heaven's sake!
Pat don't rise to the troll
Pat again tries to defend the indefendable. Shaking the hand of Bill Clinton and welcoming him to your city is disgusting for anyone on the left to do. Clinton bombed Afghanistan and lied on oath to the people of the USA. It is not right to say that someone 'should use the opportunity of shaking his hand to criticise him'. As Mayor not turning up and publicly criticising him is the way to go.
Pat, why do you always jump to defend bureaucrats and those drifting to the right. Just in the past few days you have defended a Tory USI officer and have said you would support TU Bureaucrat Cassells against a revolutionary in the european elections!
You missed a historic moment. Unless ICL stands for Irish Chemicals Ltd a 'spart' has just posted to indymedia.ie! Let the madness begin!!
"John Meehan is a member of the USFI,"
Correct!
" this organisation is in government in Brazil implementing savage cuts."
This organisation in fact is under threat of expulsion by Lulas henchmen due to their opposition to the cutbacks. I doubt if you are unaware of this.
"In Limerick they have a councillor who when he was mayor shook the hand of Bill Clinton."
You are obviously referring to Joe Harrington. He has not been a councillor since 1999 and has not been a member of the USFI since he was expelled following the Clinton incident. Its worth mentioning however that Joe Harrington used to occasion to condemn Clintons policies. If he had simply boycotted the ceremony then he would not have had the chance to do this in the full light of the international media.
John Meehan is a member of the USFI, this organisation is in government in Brazil implementing savage cuts. In Limerick they have a councillor who when he was mayor shook the hand of Bill Clinton.

All the best with the campaign Maynooth,it can be a hard issue to deal with at times but raising awareness of Cokes crimes in Colombia is imperative if we are to do anything to help the people there.
All the best!
but not yet. The aim of this meeting is to build a coalition and give everyone who wants to help out in the campaign an opportunity to take part. In a referendum Campaign each side will get an allocation of funds from the SU. By having a formal coalition the resources will be allocated more efficiently and with an input from everyone involved.
Hopefully there will be many clubs and societies in the college prepared to back this campaign.
Cabhog this is not a debate, it is a meeting to organise the pro boycott campaign. Do you suggest that Joe Higgins addresses the meetings of the FF parliameentary party in the interests of balance?!
I'm presuming that you are awaiting confirmation of a speaker from the pro-coke side, in order that it can be as informative as possible?
May i suggest Matt Bruton of YFG Maynooth
