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.

or don't want to go near the "all about evil" show in Amsterdam,
here's the program.
lots of mad stuff.
who knows you might learn something.

and yes, quite right, Cork is the smallest capital of Culture ever ever after Atlantis which was only a few yards across.
NONE OF YE.
I REPEAT NONE OF YE
are to go sending langer nasty telegraphic messages.
All you need is LOVE.
and PEACE.
and we're all created equally sort of stuff.
"something for everyone?"
oh well if you thought you were getting "Cork European City of Culture 2005" on your CV for nothing short of a lot more effort at representing european and global culture than simply asking a wide range of artists and groups over - you've another thing coming.
Lazy Langers!
= Where's the graffiti?
= what you spending the money on?
"Others suggested this month's opening fireworks spectacular, complete with a giant river-serpent was out of touch. The snake related to a Cork folk tale not known to most spectators. To make matters worse, a writer in the Irish Times pointed out that the colours for the logos were the black and gold of Kilkenny, not the red and white of Cork.
"The organisation was seen as removed from the people of the city," said Mick Hannigan, founder of the Cork film festival and a member of Where's Me Culture?
"We had a groundswell of support from people who were variously disillusioned, disenchanted or angry about Cork 2005. There are great things in the programme, but it hasn't excited the popular imagination. There has been no big idea, no great vision of how to transform the city on an emo tional and intellectual level."
Andrea Kennedy, a Cork club owner who has worked in pirate radio, warned of a "formalised" programme of events emanating from a "cultural bunker" which had not exploited the goodwill of Cork people by enlisting volunteers. "
Each of these Cork companies has invested 1000€ minimum in tying their name to the 2005 European Year of Culture. Have a look at them, if any are exploitative, encourage bad worker or environmental practise, are ecological unsustainable, then say so.
Print it up and let everyone know. You should ask the langers at €U2005 for the dosh to do this. And if they say no, let me know. & I'll get the UN and ISAF and Lichtenstein and the spanish inquistion unto them for ye. Coz the langers are chalking up CV points in Europe's name with lots of european as well as local cash and goodwill.

For example you might be wondering why "weighwatchers" is sponsering a cultural event in the name of Europe, when the rest of us outside arts and media mediocrity land are trying to get people to feed the poor. Maybe they think it's funny, sure dancers are faddy on the nutrition. And there's quite a few chem. companies there, it is modern and contemporary cultural practise to look hard at these sort of people and ask the questions.
Just came across this web-site -www.corkschoolofculture.com - seems to be a challenging way of really exploring Irish history, culture, identity, environment etc.
