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.

This is not an "orange revolution". There's no Julia involved, this is the post-imperialist backyard of the French, not the WingèdLion of US/UK. And the only french Julia, is Didier Julia, the maverick deputy blamed for fouling the quick release of last years french Iraqi hostages Chesnot and malbrunot. He has come back to front pages in france now as the distraught Aubenas (current french hostage in Iraq) rekindles the links between one section of the DGSE's foreign meddling with another.

Lebanon is future candidate for the European Union. And shall move into emergent democracy accordingly. But any US attempts to profit from the Harriri game to pressure Syria at this time are ill conceived. So that smirk on Condolence Rice's face really should go. Hezbollah are other players on the stage, deprived of their TV and other prop. networks (c/f search engine) in the eyes of the West they are "yesterday's islamic revolutionaries" created in a cold war atmosphere, they don't do things the modern way, they don't go in for snuff movies, and they just hark on about the zionist entity and stuff. Very old hat. But the Lebanese people (the real ones not the ones who just flew there in the last week) so tired of seeing the profits from their state tied up in one family and its chronies or manipulated into supporting Syria's sabre rattling at the "zionist entity" have a certain affection for Hezbollah and their fellow travellers.
They're in a sort of way what the NRA are to the neo-conservaties in the USA.
And no-one from smirking Rice to Bush, to antichrist Blair to even Chirac has offered an explanation for how the Lebanese economy would survive the "anti-Syria" curve that will in time see almost two million workers unwelcome.
(they're not very good with ethnic diversity)

Lebanese commandos deployed briefly around the headquarters of the Syrian intelligence service in Beirut before pulling out to a nearby Lebanese army barracks, witnesses say.
Dozens of commandos and five troop carriers took up positions on crossroads leading to the headquarters in the Ramlat al-Baida neighbourhood. Syrian troops and intelligence officers were still in the headquarters, the witnesses said on SaturdAy.
About 45 minutes later, the commandos pulled out and moved to a barracks in the area.
Lebanese soldiers were also seen near a Syrian intelligence office in Hamra neighbourhood and in other streets in Beirut.
The Lebanese army command was not reachable to comment on the movements which came a few hours before Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was expected to announce a partial Syrian troop withdrawal from Lebanon.
