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

offsite link 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.

Cryptome published some lovely photos of Garda special branch recently, and then this libellous piece of shite appears which quite frankly is putting peoples lives at serious risk. Funny there arent many criticisms of the guards in it. I talked to someone last night who made a post critical of the guards on it and, surprise surprise, it was deleted.

Funny that..

The bloggers (branch-men?) named a number of Taxi firms in Dundalk which they claimed were IRA fronts. These posts were there for 2 days. Then someone posted in that the site had just made every single last vulnerable taxi driver for all those firms a target for loyalist assassins. Surprise surprise, they took down the post, after passing a load of names to the guards (themselves?), but now theyre going to put up even more instead.

If I was a taxi driver Id be contacting my solicitor immediately claiming I was unable to work for fear of being murdered , and suffering emotional distress. Sue the bollocks off them.

Given that theyve been running down Dundalks solicitors as well (were the guards caught lying in court again ?) I think thered be no shortage of briefs to take their cases for them.

I hope someone sues and well find out who was behind it. That would be funny.

There seemed to me thinking back on looking at the blog to be a huge amount of supposedly knowledgeable posts on the original blog for a site that according to the 'administrator' had had 1000 hits. Nearly one in 10 hitters must have been willing to a) Deposit the name of a criminal b) drug dealer c) republican d) disclose inside operations of vodaphone How likely is that?

Smells rotten? More comment at the slugger link.

"TWO disgruntled former army intelligence agents have caused a security alert after hijacking a military website. The men were able to take control of the site’s e-mailing facility shortly before Christmas after the Intelligence Corps apparently failed to renew its subscription."

Anti-republican website pulled
January 09, 2005
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2091-1432029,00.html

A SPOOF website that accused a relative of Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams of being an informer has been removed following complaints from Sinn Fein and Vodafone.

The bulletin board is directed against republicans and businesses in Dundalk, the border town nicknamed “El Paso” because of the number of IRA members who fled there during the Troubles.

The letter on Cryptome refers to the owner of the website as "Kevin Fulton" - now there's a name that rings a bell - British agent who infiltrated the IRA, aka Peter Keeley, a frequent performer sitting in the dark or with a hood on TV documentaries.

Then again, the 'Kevin Fulton' thing could just as easily be a red herring. there is definitely something very fishy about the whole thing.

Brit and free state intelligence thrive on misinformation, confusion, etc. Do not expect to get clear answers to this.

Oh! so a " Brit -free state" conspiracy now?,or maybe just a dud local with a PC ! ( much more likely - one should always opt for stupidity over conspiracy and 9 times out of ten you'll not go wrong)

There are several things that are _seriously_ fishy about this story as well as the kevin fulton name

Whoever put it up obviously had a long list of local republicans to hand in advance as well as local crims. The number of contributions that the site received in the first days means that we can pretty much rule out the chance that they were randomly contributed by users. The site made national news within a week or so of going live and by this time they already had a long list of names.

You're not be chance employed in the security area are you? A much better rule of thumb is that when shadowy figures carry out actions against republicans in seriously suspicious circumstances, the security services are involved.
