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.

The WHO Pandemic Accords, the first part of which came into effect last month, consolidate the power of the Covid clerisy on a global scale, warns Professor Ramesh Thakur. Expect more of the same.

The True Hidden Purpose of ?Sex Education? Thu Oct 02, 2025 15:00 | Steven Tucker
A quarter of parents believe their child has been taught something inappropriate in sex education. Like choking and rimming. Why? It all goes back to the neo-Marxists of the Frankfurt School, says Steven Tucker.

Sound has been used as a weapon by cops at demos in the US and Israel - it's about time we used it against them.
Use all frequencies at your disposal.
That means as well as the usual banging pots and pans which quickly builds rhythm and energetic enthusiasm (sometimes it's difficult to wind down) -
use dog whistles as well. You'll be amazed at the response even in an urban environment - hmmmmm - it works better in an urban environment.
;-)
You can also make quite good trumpets and tubas from long plastic piping - anyone who knows how to play a trumpet will show you how to cause the air to vibrate in a long pipe - the result is a very low note with harmonics. If your pal swings the end of the plastic piping in the air you get a visual effect (be careful no-one is standing near by) and other sounds too - you'll be surprised.

When I saw Jeb Bush, I had been waiting in the pissing rain for over an hour, accompanying a cross section of Barcelona usual suspect protesters, we didn't number more than 50 people. It was less than week after Feb 15 and "millions of people".
I only caught a glimpse of an armoured limousine & felt sort of disappointed. I remember we were chanting "re-sis-ten-ci-a!" (which puts the wind up them verily). Later on I discovered that the noise only 50 people made had indeed travelled right inside the building, along with the whining of doggies and inordinate amount of pigeons going mad.
Good to see foks come upwith varied repsonses to the arrival of Jeb.
I've been floating the idea of replaying the White House Demo with Daddy Bush during Gulf War 1 ('91) "Beat Around the Bush". I didn't make that one either being locked up in Catskill County Jail,NY -I believe the surrounding area (as depicted in the '80's hit pic "Dirty Dancing is quite beautiful, but I didn't see much of it!)
Have been pretty busy with trial and can't guarantee personal availability (verdict day should be next Wednesday!) but I've managed to collect 3 contact mobile numbers of Dublin's drumming community. So if AY wants 'em - get in contact.
Origiinally I thought it might be good to do the night before he arrives to protest the Hotel's involvement and make it accessible for folks with day jobs and build for the presence when he is there the next day.
Also a banshee/women in black action on Jeb's obssession with execution in his personal fiefdom of Fllorida is an idea....announce it soon and smoke out Amnesty International to mae a stance on this visit.
If someone from the IAWM and AWI could contact AY and let us know what their plans are so we can make sure we don't annoy each other that would be good.
Thanks for the message comrades. Good idea to co-ordinate things.
However the number posted in your message is not operational. Can you give us another number or would you like to meet later this afternoon to discuss matters. The Dublin Action Group of the IAWM meets every Tuesday at 7.00 pm in Doyles - opposite TCD.
Very welcome to come over and have a chat with us.
We'll see if we can send someone along to that meeting. AY phone appears to have a low battery. Our plan is to make a lot of noise to disrupt the meeting if you're planning on having and speakers etc. we can arrange on the day to stop for a while etc.
Due to a recent bereavement and funeral which will be on at the same time as this event Anarchist Youth are cancelling their planned Noise Demo.
Apologies.
We're sorry to hear the news. Our sincere condolences from everybody in the IAWM.
This is off topic, but the notion of a bunch of anarchists planning something makes me laugh. How does this happen? Isn't it totally non-anarchistic to plan something together with others?

No, you’ll be pleased to know that anarchism has always emphasised collective action. This stems from its views of humans as intensely social animals who maximise their abilities when acting with others. Anarchism has, however, also emphasised that collective action should be organised in a highly democratic manner, with the opportunity for meaningful participation for all affected people. That means, for example, that decisions should be made by all those affected rather than a leadership, even an elected one, doing so over their heads.
