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.

"We" being the audience reading Indymedia. Perhaps presumptuous on my part to assume that others reading Indymedia are intelligent? I would rather err on the side of caution than run off at the mouth treating those that read the site as stupid, myself.
Being that I do not know what is in the libel case, I cannot answer your point about the libel laws authoritatively. I do think your definition of such is slippery, however. Beyond that I am not in a position to argue legalistically over the finer points of how libel law is applied. I will not be taking your word on it, btw.
I do believe that the case revolves around more than Morrison calling O'Rawe a fool, though, as that was in today's papers, and it was me who made the point about Morrison's petulance not being considered 'debate'. He will have to do better than that, and than selling us the same cow twice (the stunt with the public comms).
The best part of your post is what you call 'pathetic' and 'a crock of nonsense'. Sinn Fein is the richest party in Ireland, and indeed in Western Europe, and you are going to claim they aren't a big machine? HA!! HA!!!!! HAHAHA!!!
If you lie about that, what else are you lying about?
If Richard O'Rawe is correct he is 100% right to be asking questions over the deaths of the hunger strikers.
If he is wrong the truth will out. So far, though, he has put forth a strong case. That he is willing to bring it to the courts to defend himself is an act of confidence.
And "we" are..............? You forgot to answer that one.
You also forgot to answer on the libel laws and Richard O'Rawe's very precious sense of himself, in which being called a "fool" is elevated in importance over accusing others of causing the deaths of hunger strikers.
As for "the big machine ........the Sinn Fein machine", what a crock of nonsense? Pathetic. Is this for real?
Carlin makes a good point re the British courts however that has not stopped members of SF in the past from pursuing cases and likely won't in the future. For these cases it is the recourse available.
Carlin also makes a good point regarding Morrison's article - the statements of the PRO in his capacity as PRO are hardly convincing.
O'Rawe is confident in his position and he is standing up to the big machine with what is available to him.
There's not many that have the courage to stand up to the Sinn Fein machine.
Who exactly is this 'we"?
Libel and defamation have little to do with the truth - a person can win a libel case because a truth uttered can be defined as having a negative effect on their so-called 'reputation'. Read what Davy Carlin has to say on the other thread and get some sense.
The threatened resort to the courts is par for the course for someone with no argument left.
You'd hardly go to court without an argument to win, now would you? How stupid do you think we are, Peter?
That last comment indicates the lop-sided nonsense of O'Rawe's position. He accuses the republican leadership of conspiring in the needless death of six hunger strikers. When this is refuted by ex prisoners, and Danny Morrison calls O'Rawe a “fool”, this is somehow an attack on O'Rawe's 'character'.
How very precious.
Previously O'Rawe compared himself to a Jew in Nazi Germany because someone daubed a slogan on a wall near a house.
Like I said, how very precious.
The threatened resort to the courts is par for the course for someone with no argument left.
How is he preventing debate? His suit doesn't appear to have stopped today's Daily Ireland and Andersonstown News from carrying Morrison's commentary regarding the subject. Try pulling the other one.
O'Rawe writes book. Claims an offer accepted by the prisoners was rejected by the outside leadership.
Morrison attempts to refute O'Rawe's position by calling him names and smearing his character.
O'Rawe sues for libel.
Morrison calls O'Rawe a fool and a disgrace.
Morrison then claims that O'Rawe is preventing debate.
Danny if you want to call Ricky names then stick to writing graffiti on his wall.
http://www.indymedia.ie/article/76494?&condense_comment...53394
Check it out - Daily Ireland today - see link above. NO ONE is stopping O'Rawe putting his point of view. O’Rawe is preventing debate by threatening to sue - even a child can see this – and trying to extract money ‘damages’ on the basis of criticism he objects to.
O'Rawe isn't running away from the debate, he's telling Morrison to put his money where his mouth is! It's one thing to slabber in the pages of Daily Ireland (not impressed) but quite another to stand up in open court and defend your position.
Good on him for standing up to the bullyboys
Mod, fair play to you but you must be joking, the Shinners do not debate with anyone who disagrees with them or has an alternative viewpoint, they just use their propaganda machines to spin, spin, spin.
This court case could be interesting if the Daily Ireland and Morrison have the stones to contest it in open court. It's a safe bet they won't. O'Rawe is standing up for himself and taking them on.
PS Hey Danny, calling people a disgrace and a fool is not 'debate'!!
Peter,
I will type slowly so you can understand my point. Forget about the spinning for a minute, will anybody in SF debate this issue with O'Rawe on a public platform? On a public platform in a public place in front of the public. Is that any clearer? If anybody in SF is willing to debate O'Rawe I'm suggesting that somebody like McIntyre could arrange it.
Danny Morrison IS debating with him!
Former republican prisoner Jim Gibney, 73-day hunger striker Laurence McKeown, and former Prisoners' leader Bik McFarlane have all debated this with O'Rawe and have all disagreed with his view. All reproduced here on Indymedia.
Have you a difficulty interpreting perfectly straightforward information?
Has O’Rawe run off in a huff to his lawyer because few ex-prisoners (or their families) think his eccentric opinion as earth shatteringly important as he does? Is that what you are implying?
Peter,
O'Rawe has already called for a public debate with Morrision or any of the others attacking him, read his interview on McIntyre's Blanket website. Wiil anyone from SF debate with him? I'm sure McIntyre would only be too happy to organise it.
Or is your post the usual SF bullshit?
That meeting was not billed as a debate with O'Rawe, who was a last minute addition to the list. O'Rawe is debating Danny Morrison, or rather not debating him now. He is hiding behind his lawyer.
Funny, when SF had a chance to debate O'Rawe at the Dublin meeting in the ATGWU hall they didn't have the balls and pulled their agreed speaker.
Don't be stupid. This is a political argument. Whatever credibility O’Rawe thought he had in republican areas, it is now zero.
Are you suggestin Danny is afraid to defend his position under oath?
I don't think Richard O'Rawe is too much interested in Debate if his threat to sue Danny Morrison, who has challenged O'Rawe's account in Daily Ireland and the Irish News, is anything to go by.
How to stifle public debate - threaten to sue
He is of course very welcome. There have been some recent revelations of inconsistencies between what he said in 1981 and what he is saying now, so it would be great if he came along and shed some light on them.
You'd think he would be interested in rebutting the research which shows his communications from prison at the the time, completely contradict what he has written in his book, and said several times since in interviews.
Let's hope he comes along.
Why no invite for Richard O'Rawe to speak as well? Surely he has some expierence to share.
