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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14Well done INLA you cant be having crinimal gangs in your area not giving you a cut can you??
When are members of the INLA going to stop using there membership as a front for crinimal ends?? When they do sign me up.
Whern I saw the headline I thought the INLA had closed itself down but now I realise they just told a rival criminal gang to stop dealing on their patch.
The INLA should be praised for it's community work.
I thought the INLA was on ceasefire and had benefitted from the terms of the Good Friday Agreement with regards to prisoner releases.
A question for the ceasefire soldiers of the North West Brigade INLA - were you involved in the abduction of Mary Reid from her place of work in Derry city on 29th January2003?
There is absolutely nothing to suggest that your sister Mary was anything but very respected by her former comrades in the INLA and IRSP. There is also nothing to suggest that her death was nothing more than a tragic accident and you are obviously very hurt and saddened by her death. I am also aware that the IRSP have offered to meet you to listen to your concerns yet you haven't taken them up on that offer.
Perhaps there wasn't an internal fued in a while, and they got restless and needed to bump someone off so through to INLA fashion they killed one of their own.
The former comrades of Mary Reid in the IRSP were the only political group that did not question the lack of an investigation or demand an investigation into Mary's death. They were the people that invented the accidental theory and also suggested that she may have been suicidal.The possibility of Mary being murdered in a remote part of Donegal was not to be discussed. The incompetence of the Garda on the day of Mary's death may be explained by laziness on a wet and miserable winters day. However, I would be of the opi nion, almost 7 years later, that the Garda were protecting their informers within the INLA. The IRSP had opportunities to discuss the details of Mary's death with her family, they choose to defend her former comrades. If IRSP concerns had been genuine, they would have questioned the suspicious circumstances of Mary's death in 2003 and protested for an investigation. They did the complete opposite.
Nothing more than trying to eliminate the competition.
And they are that stupid they think people will actually fall for their spin about fighting crime.
If they want to end crime, they should disband themselves.
The INLA were asked a question by the family of Mary Reid years ago and have received no answer. The IRSP were asked the same question 2 days ago and still no answer. I believe that your silence speaks volumes. Find the people that murdered this community activist (my sister Mary ) and find out why they believed that she should die. The war is long over,it is time to move on, it is time for the truth.
I'm sorry for your loss Joe.
Mary's death was tragic and I can only imagine the anguish you and your family must feel at never having the truth told, not to mention justice done in her name. To the INLA, Mary is just another one of those inconvenient truths that sends them scuttling back under their stones every time it is mentioned.
Reading the pathetic drivel praising these thugs must really stick in your throat. I know it sticks in mine. Trying to glorify the actions of a bunch of drug dealing, thieving, brutalising, murdering scum and pass it off as patriotism or heroism is as pathetic as it is laughable.
Joe I hope someday you and your family get what you deserve and in it will bring you peace and help you move on.
Thank you Doire Boy for your message, very much appreciated. The people of Derry city were brilliant and supportive to us in the day's after Mary was killed. They attended her wake and funeral in their hundreds. Mary loved Derry and the Derry people, they knew that she worked on their behalf and contributed greatly to her community.The Reid family harbour no bad feelings or proportion blame to the people of that beautiful city for Mary's death. Fear of INLA thugs has prevented people from coming forward with information and we understand this fear. We do not wish any person putting their life in danger. I believe that the truth will come out and Mary's killers will be named. To correct the IRSP message on this site, Mary was a community activist and left the IRSP in 1982. To my knowledge she was never a member of the INLA and I resent that implication from the IRSP.
Mary was described by friends and comrades as inspirational . " She put no value on her time " was how many described the help that she had given without reward . I knew of her generosity . She died on a cold winter day on an isolated beach . WHY ? Lies were told . WHY ? The memory of Mary and her kindness demands justice . Let the irsp carry out their own internal enquiry and find the truth . Then let us all know . Mary was a committed and dedicated republican socialist but with a big compassionate heart . What a terrible loss for her family and her friends .
The IRSP have had years to hold an enquiry. They didn;t. As someone above said it is an inconvenient truth for them and instead of doing the right thing they avoid the issue. Its obvious they know full well who is responsible and want to protect their own. Not only did they allow poor Mary to suffer but they still let her poor family suffer. Shame on them.
