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.

That's weird ???????.
We're not the most punctual, but we're usually the most reliable on keeping anti-war stuff happening in Ireland. I'll be coming off a dusk to dawn night shift, so will definitely be there. Damien & Elaine are definites. We've emailed out and text around. We sustain a weekly anti-war vigil at the GPO Mondays 4pm-6pm.
Not much more we can do in such a colonised town with such a housebroken generation. See you there 8.30am!
Will you have time to find out the names of these children murdered in Iraq: "Suicide Car Bomber Kills 18 Iraqi Kids"?
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2005/07/13/international/i131659D29.DTL
The Dublin Catholic Worker have been reading the names of the dead at thier vigils for quite sometime now - Iraqi dead, American dead, British dead, other 'coalition' dead, civilians and combatants alike and so on.
They make no differentiation. This war is a tragedy for all involved.
Bush is a war criminal and this is a criminal war.
Why don't you hold a vigil for the London victims only?
When on another night hold one for US Soldiers, and then on another the Iraqi "victims"? And finally one protesting Shannon "war port".
See how many turn up to each...
.
The British state have been preparing for this recent attack for quite some time. Security elites have always said "it is a case of when not if". The London Mayor who was against the invasion and occupation of Iraq stated at the time "London will pay for this decision".
Last week's attack was a price Blair & Co. were prepared to pay to follow Bush into an "illegal" (Kofi) "immoral" (JP2) and "unwinnable" (many a U.S. military expert) war.
The post attack sequence was managed with well rehearsed agendas. From the initial lies of "power surge" affecting the tube to attempts to control images were to secure two agendas to downsize panic and avoid a popular conclusion that these little bombs are here, because our big bombs are there.
As Madeline Albright stated when confronted with the hundredsof thousands of child deaths due to the U.S./British/OZ enforcement of the sanctions "We think it's worth the price!" Blair and Bush believe that these civilian casualties in London, Madrid, Bali, NYC, Baghdad, Afghanistan are worth the price when pursuing power, profit, empire.
The Ahern gombeens are quoted in the Irish Times today celebrating the doubling of U.S. military traffic through Shannon Airport. They know the main road from Baghdad Airport to downtown Baghdad is named "Route Irish" and they wish us to beleve that war will not come here.
The Catholic Worker doesn't think anyone is expendable (unlike empire that believes everyone is expendable from JFK down to the cannon fodder that passes daily through Shannon to Iraqi & Afghani bodies they don't bother to count),.
We will read the names of Iraqi, London, U.S. military & civilian dead to shake off our sedation and stupor. We will continue to nonviolently confront Irish & other instiutions that co-operate and profit from this war. We refuse to go quietly in an atmosphere of cynicism, denial and despair.
You're welcome to join us and do some field work, engage the public, inform fellow irish citizens that 153,000+ troops have passed through Shannon in the first 6 months of this year, a number equivalent to the whole of last year.
