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.

offsite link 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.

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

offsite link 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.

Possible Deportation Support Needed

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Wednesday November 30, 2005 19:33author by Residents Against Racismauthor email residentsagainstracism at eircom dot netauthor address c/o 12a Brunswick place Dublin2author phone 0876662060/0877974622 Report this post to the editors

On tuesday many age out minors had to sign on at the GNIB but have been told to report back thursday to finalise their deportation, so we are expecting a deportation tomorrow

Others are also due to sign on and currently people are being held at Clover Hill prison and Mount Joy women's prison, this obviously is a bad sign.

Residents Against Racism have called a demonstration for 1.30pm outside the Garda National Immigration Bureau(GNIB) to protest against the deportation.
We need all the support possible to try stop this going ahead.

GNIB Burgh Quay Dublin 2(up from Tara street train station)
1.30PM

There thankfully was no deportation today. But on the 8th of December everyone that was there today has to sign back which is not a good sign. People were taken upstairs in the gnib to have an 'interview' with the nigerian embassy which means they are getting peoples travel documents ready for deportation. So again we will be there next thursday from 1.30pm and would ask people to come down for support.

One wonders if it's just Nigerians RAR are concerned about. This is twice we've seen "call to arms" by these people in the last few weeks on Indymedia.ie - both were false alarms and both concerned nigerians only. One wonders if they called out the Irish Times photographers for both occassions too for the latest stunts outside the GNIB...

Michael McDowell said to Ivana Bacik during the run up to the referendum that the referendum was really about getting rid of the Nigerians.

This is Mickey's obsession.

Can you give us the source for that claim?

author by Residents Against Racismpublication date Fri Dec 02, 2005 10:46author address author phone Report this post to the editors

It is true that McDowell said it. Bacik herself admitted so and it is cited in an issue of the village magazine, which McDowell didn't refute.

As for RAR only campaigning for Nigerians, that is utter nonsense and shows absolutely no knowledge of what we do. Next week we will be having a protest with asylum seekers from Afghanistan. We currently have cases involving people from all across eastern europe, africa, and asia and in recent months we have also had a few cases involving americans.

Provide me with an audio link or scan in a copy of what Mc Dowell said - basically prove it. In any case his obsession with Nigerian nationals is for a good reason, they make up the largest number of failed asylum seekers in this country. Mc Dowell is exercising his power to decide who can stay in what is a sovereign nation. Deportations are a part of life in every other EU country; they will continue to be a part of Ireland’s.

Eamonn it is foolish of you to think that their are no asylum seekers from America, or is it that you think the USA is the only America. Having said that we have also helped US citizens from claiming residency under the IBC scheme.

Kevin it was published in the village. You want to see the piece, contact the village or you could contact Bacik yourself. I am not prepared to waste my time scanning through old copies of the village in order to satisfy a biggot.

Mc Dowell was called infront of some committee in the Dail this year
his comments were about how he would love to be at Dublin airport watching people trying to enter Ireland
how he would love to put them back on the next flight to their country of origin.
with their cock and bull stories about their fears of female genital mutilation
let us not forget Mc Dowell was praised by David Dukes a member of a branch of the ku klux klan for having a racist referendum in 2004.
no doubt that Mc Dowell would support
Eammon Rothwell
Bernard Somers
Mc Guickan.

If an immigrant lands in another country first before they land in Ireland, then under the Dublin convertion, they must apply for asylum there. Ireland would not have been these immigrants first country of landing. Therefore its politically correct that they be sent back to those countries of landing.
