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.

start scrolling upwards until you hit the 13th image.
It shows a stall selling (or giving away ;o) ) religious stuff.
Take a look at the righthandside of the table.
Notice anything odd, out of place or illegal?
It is illegal to use the Irish flag in this fashion. Guinness got done for it once. Although this act symbolises the government's theft of 1916 in a very visual sense, it should not go without comment.
Done.
Great piece Paula.
Fantastic set of images - you really "captured" a lot of different angles on day and its meaning, its significance to different people and its actuality as an ordinary sunny day in Dublin.

In answer to the question Seán Healy was the youngest person to die on the republican side in 1916. He was a member of na Fiánna and serving as a courier to the 1st battalion at Phibsboro Bridge. He was shot by a British sniper at what's now Doyle's Corner, Phibsboro. He was 15.
This Easter Sinn Féin Átha Cliath, at the initiative of Cllr Nicky Kehoe, erected a plaque at the site to commemorate Seán Healy.
I really enjoyed looking at them. Thank you for sharing them with us.
Iosaf, looking at photos from the Civil War period, I get the impression there were a lot of underage soldiers on the FS side. Republican soldiers weren't really photographed much so you can't really tell on the anti-treaty side. In 1916 I recall hearing that in Boland's Mills there were several Volunteers around the 15-16 age group who mobilised but were told to go home. Does anyone know about the other outposts?
Apparently many of the soldiers in the British service "shot at dawn" during WWI were underage.
those guys in the suits going throught that guys pockets ? Outside the GPO ?
And Berties calling these guys the successors of Pearse and Connolly ?

Pictures of the National 1916 commemoration committees marking of the event on Easter Sunday . Despite the acres and acres of news time given over to demonising 32csm in the last 8 years not a single strand of the national media covered our parade , the only national alternative to the free state farce on the day . It saw for the first time ever branchmen frisking people outside the gpo on easter sunday as the proclamation was being read . Symbolic but unfortunately the cameras stayed turned off .
& Very thought-provoking. I admit to wondering at the picture of the aircraft in the sky oh behold the CIA rendition flights! then quickly corrected myself and realised it must have been Ryanair instead. Then I noted the difference in price between beers. Very thoughful Paula! Then the kids at the garden of remembrance, caused me to ponder - how many underage soldiers fought in 1916, the war of independence and then the civil war of 1922-1923? & then that most wonderful hat, of the Irish Citizen's Army's female officers. I admit to not knowing from which bird those plumes were plucked, perhaps it was a gazebo? . But I do remember that more than one 1916 player arrived in fancy dress, "the Rahilly" really looking forward to the bloody sacrifice and that one other (Plunkett) was almost shot by his own side on account of his accent. & for certain there was not 120,000 or even 100,000 ordinary Dubliners in attendance last Sunday. But I did get sentimental at the sight of the rheumy eyed old man in his felt hat, easter lilly and paisley scarf. At end it is somewhat ironic that the greatest display of military power seen in Ireland since the point of contention, has been that of the British army or at a push those who protected the visiting presidents of the USA, and even weirder to see such displays of very paltry national military power on an indymedia site. As many know Ireland would only ever defend herself from invasion or occupation by irregular means... & my thus last thought, silly, meandering, is the lack of fake-tan effect on the maniquins who dress the windows of Dublin's shops; the Lilly white skin... & paisley scarves
Lovely photoessay
nice one paula
