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.

It really was.
Three bikes and three pedestrians showed up.
what happened to 30 or 40 people on a regular basis taking back the streets of dublin for a couple of hours a month?
i dont want to try to guilt on people.
i just cant figure out why people dont show up anymore.
it genuinely makes me sad, it used to be a really enjoyable and inspiring thing to be a part of but the last few rides have just been depressing.
maybe this starts a discussion and maybe people get involved again. maybe not.
beep beep
old skool
Firstly Id have to take a certain amount of responsibility for the lack of publicity at least-unfortunately I got knocked off my bike by a bus last weekend and was outta action all last week as a result.
The answer as to why noones showing up anymore is unclear-it could be one of many things-lack of publicity,lack of interest in general,lack of a new formula,or maybe Critical Mass needs a new direction,like RTS..
With the poster ban (supposedly>>>) dropped I envisaged it to be easier to get posters up for the mass,obviously that didnt happenb this time.
It seems to be falling to one or two individuals to do the donkey work around advertising the mass,maybe a collective is needed or something...
The state of play is poor,Ill admit.
hi,
not sure if this is the right place to post this...
but i'm originally from san francisco (where CM is huge) and would love to get involved/help out here in dublin...judging from the turnout at last nights dublin city cycle, i think CM could gather quite a crowd here if people knew about it...
i'm a graphic/web designer, so maybe i can be of some use?
it was never an issue with design, it just needs people committed to flyering bikes each month and not just anarcho-spamming places like here and mailing lists
despite it supposedly being an organic happening, the 3 people who did most of the work for it arent involved any more and it has died off.
a few people i talked to as well who were just into cycling were pretty narked with DGN (dublin anti capitalist group that has since dissolved) essentially hijacking it as part of an anarchist weekend a couple of years back. i was surprised initially but i guess i see their feelings now, it wasnt right for any political group to claim it as their own or part of something they did, same way that people get pissed off when trots leech onto campaigns, this was the same thing happening, and since then its disappeared.
I just got an email saying Critical Mass is on this Friday 28th July at 6pm from the Gardens of Remembrance. Anyone coming?
anyone can use it the idea and it has always been political, whether you try to make it such or not.
If you want to spread the word on it use your networks to do so. The people DGN were completely open with what they were doing and have been part of CM.
Tomorrow as part of Dublin Bike Week, there's a fun cycle in Phoenix Park.!
Maybe next year Critical Mass could coincide with bike week...
