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.

Residents Against Racism
Press Release
Stop the deportation
Demonstration Weds 27th April 2 p.m.
Garda National Immigration Bureau, Burgh Quay, Dublin
Residents against Racism are holding a demonstration at 2 p.m. outside GNIB, Burgh Quay in protest against a planned mass deportation.
The last mass deportation was met by protests from communities across Ireland, and received condemnation from many quarters of civic society. Kunle, a leaving cert student, was deported and subsequently returned after Palmerstown students took to the streets. Groups across Ireland and Residents against Racism are campaigning for those deported on the last chartered flight be brought back, as is the wish of the communities they lived in. Despite this Minister for Justice, Michael McDowell is going ahead with another mass deportation.
Rosanna Flynn spokesperson for RAR said:
“Michael McDowell, ignoring the widespread condemnation of his policies, is preparing for another mass deportation. Communities across Ireland have come out in large numbers to protest against his brutal practices. Many of the people deported had not exhausted all the legal avenues that were available to them. There were children separated from their mothers after the last deportation. These children still remain parentless in Ireland. Many of those deported remain hiding in Nigeria fearing for their lives.
The very fact that, despite this and growing public concerns, McDowell is attempting another mass deportation reinforces our demand that the asylum process be removed from his hands and into a body such as the Human Rights Commission. Recent statistics have shown that the asylum numbers are dropping, this is happening across Europe. Despite it being a European wide phenomenon McDowell is attempting to take the credit. McDowell would claim credit for the invention of the wheel if he thought he could get away with. It is no wonder he has become known as the Minister for Injustice and Lies.”

According to the UN Refugee Commissioner the number of vulnerable people/displaced people is down from 20 million to 17 million (for the first time in 20 years).
Also the change in status of much of Eastern Europe has made it unecessary for people to need to apply for asylum, they can now simply move and are legally entitled to work (which puts them in a much better position than asylum seekers and entitles basic levels of equality). Apparently this reduced the original asylum count by 1000 (not including cases already decided upon). So its likely that an overall reduction in refugees would have led to the same reduction. So the current stats may even show a small increase - possibly. I couldn't find the exact figures for accession EU asylum seekers so not exactly sure.
