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.

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.

Hey all, even though i'm from america (I know, i know. I'm not looking for my 'roots' or anything, so don't worry.) Even though i'm from america I say BOYCOTT NETSLE! and Coke. I don't know what the hell the last guy was thinking but get the companies out of the school, or even the country if you can. Coke and Nestle exploit the lower economic parts of the world and thereby murder hundreds of people a day. If you want info get off of indymedia and look around. Yay for the students at Trinity! Rise Up!

i think the reason the margin in the boycott legenthened, is due to the fact that they are admitting the wrong people into college these days. they should restore Trinity to being an old boy's club and get rid of this nonsence

This is an important victory, it shows that Irish students are genuinely concerned about human rights. It will undoubtabley encourage more universities, trade unions and organisations throughout europe to adopt the boycott.

it's not just women in third world countries who are given free formula milk after their babies are born - this also happens in our maternity hospitals. the irish department of health is also in thrall to companies like nestlé.

Any word on how the SU elections in Trinity went?

Probably over their overactive marketing of breast milk substitute in the 3rd world. The core problem being the lack of sterile water to make up powder formula results in huge numbers of infant deaths. Google it and you should find out more.

Might sound like ive been hiding in cave for a few years but whats the big deal with Nestle? Why are they being boycotted?

was the focus of global hunger in the XX century, with the usual diabolic tactics of presenting its wealthy customers with sanitised health products and sweetness, the "help you work rest and play" corp, set up baby feed factories in africa.
Where mothers were given free samples of feed that the infants chose over their mothers breast, but their mothers could not afford to buy. Furthermore their mothers couldn't afford to find sterile water to mix the formula. So many mothers mixed the formula with the wrong volume of water, and the babies died.

Nestle has announced huge profits this year, and recovering from a surprise change of directorship is expected to appoint its number 2 to the role of number 1 at the next shareholders meeting in switzerland. the former controlling entities of nestle the corp which raises most of its revenue outside the state of its taxed efforts (the helvetian republic) promotes itself with blonde babies but has grown rich on the exploitation of black babies.
They must be pressured now to use their technology and nutrition "know how" to feed our poorest brothers and sisters.

But Bad habits are very hard to give up.
