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.

Europe?s Days of Carbon Colonialism are Numbered Fri Sep 19, 2025 09:00 | Tilak Doshi
The delusional EU believes it can wield carbon tariffs as weapons. But its grandiloquent Net Zero scheme is destined to collapse under the weight of the bloc's utter economic irrelevance, says Tilak Doshi.

We Shouldn?t Welcome Right-Wing Cancel Culture Thu Sep 18, 2025 19:00 | Noah Carl

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13the G8 summit is actually on Wednesday 6th of July. this bus will be home 3 days before the summit begins?
"Short trip. Leaving Friday morning, July 1s Back in Ireland late on Sunday 3rd July. You will make most of the planned counter summit and the gigantic Make Poverty History rally on Saturday 2nd of July.Price approximately 100 euro "
"Long trip. Leaving Friday morning, July 1st, Return to Ireland following Thursday 7th July. We will have the full use of the coach while in Scotland, very handy for travelling to and from the different protests during the week. Price approximately 160 euro. "
the short trip seems pretty pointless.
The long trip has been cancelled mainly due to lack of interest. Most people can't get the time off work for a longer trip as they have booked holidays around that time as well.
Why is the Anti-war movemtn sending a bus? What a globalised reluctance?
Organising the Irish Barrio/ Climate Action at the G8

Open to all

This is a public meeting open to all those interested in participating in protests around the time of G8 meetings. It is organized as part of the Dissent network, a broad band of groups and individuals across Europe, determined to resist the G8 meeting and equally determined to make the organizing and participation of this resistance as democratic, and transparent as possible. This is not about summit hopping, or campaign hopping for that matter either. It is about building sustainable links with all those choosing to get involved beyond the limiting weight of party politics, long after the military barricades that our ‘leaders’ hide behind have been removed from Gleneagles only to be erected again somewhere else, as they continue to consolidate power based upon the exploitation of people and the very planet we live on.

Scotland wicket-keeper Colin Smith could miss part of the forthcoming ICC Trophy because of work commitments. Smith is a police officer and has been told he will be needed for duty during the G8 summit at Gleneagles in July.
Cricket Scotland are holding talks with Grampian police about the matter, with Smith set to miss at least two, and possibly three, matches.
All-rounder Dougie Brown, meanwhile, will not play in their opening match against Oman on 1 July.
He will turn out for Warwickshire in a Twenty20 Cup match against Worcestershire on that date, the proceeds of which will go towards his benefit year.
There is not a snowballs chance in hell that I would get on a bus with the S.W.P./ I.A.W.M. Not evevn to cross the road. Be warned! they will melt your head.
The SWP like their protests to have absolutely no effect whatsoever so they arrange to be there when the people they are protesting against are not.
Just like the Dublin protests as Bush was landing in Shannon.
Compared with dissent who were also planning to accommodate people with both a long bus and a short bus, the short bus is timed to be there for the actual g8
the iawm cancelled their long bus claiming it was due to lack of interest, was it lack of interest on their part or other peoples?
Dissent had no trouble filling a ten day bus and we arranged our 3day to arrive on the day of barricading.
Look out impotent leftists - we are connected and compassion is powerful.
Maybe its because the krustys have no jobs and have all the time in the word unlike those of us who have jobs and can't go for a week. Reality of living under capitalism. Mr./Miss W may have the ability to spend a week in Scotland, many like myself who work and have used my hols up already to spend time with my family- can't. Did that ever occur to Mr/Miss. W, before he/she shouted their mouth off...
there are no krusties on the dissent long bus - as all the crustys are at the K-town festival (a crust utopia).
I work too, i got the time off, as did all the other one hundred people travelling with Dissent, still doesnt explain why the IAWM is missing the main day of action and opting for the reformist MPH rally.
How many Black people have signed up to any of these buses?
Nothing about us without us..an Afrikan liberation saying.
There is contingent of 10 nigerians travelling on the dissent long bus.
