offsite link 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.

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.

offsite link 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

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.

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Saturday October 14, 2006 18:23author by Jim Report this post to the editors

Thousands of Tallaght residents marched today to save the Childrens Hospital in Tallaght. The march was organised by the Labour Party and supported by the Tallaght Hospital Action Group, SIPTU, the Irish Nurses Organisation, Labour Youth, Sinn Fein and the Socialist Party.

The FF/ PD government is planning to shut the Tallaght Childrens Hospital and move all childrens hospital services into the constituency of Bertie Ahern. There was massive anger amongst local people about this latest government attack on the health services.

The union Impact is balloting on strike action.

The ballot is set for May.

They no longer feel that adequate patient care can be given.

They have had enough let down by the state which privatises regardless
and ignores the responsibility of the State to the people.

solidarity.

FF/PD should return the Health Service to the people and allow them to care
for their communities- they are selling it bit by bit to investors.

Look at what they are doing to the Crunlin Children's Hospital and ask yourself is this
what they have been mandated to do- corruptly buy and sell a generation of Irish kids
to make a buck.

Support the Health Care Ballot/strikes and walkout!

This mustn't be real. The Minister for Health has just handed over the leadership of the (old) Progressive Democrats.

Fair play to all at the demo. A worthy cause. I dont agree with the governments plans on this one. However, I was watching the demo pass after playing a hockey match in St Marks, and amongst the Socialist Party, Labour Party, SIPTU flags, I saw the pile of shit that is the banner of Fine Gael. In the same situation they would do the exact same thing. It becomes clear that Fine Gael would sell their own grandmother for a vote. Labour should refuse to coalese with these bastards

The choice of the Mater grounds, as the proposed site for the new National
Children's Hospital and the process which led to its choice
is being investigated.

The issue of not having the required land mass, infrastructure and the process
of buying it, including the price are a source of investigation and of course
impending scandal.

Brings to mind all the other 'land accquisiton' projects of the current regime.

Interested parties in the Mater buying process, which will provide the site for the
new children's hospital may want to scrutinise other land deals in the vicinity.
The Department of justice stands to gain millions from the sale of the Joy
to prospective developers, though the Thornton debacle has held up
that issue. The Thornton accquistion has been audited by the C and AG's
office and is subject to Oireachtas investigation.
Whilst the fat cats are carving up land parcels for whatever future re-zoning
projects, two things emerge.

1.The Children's hospital issue is causing problems for the Tallaght Community.
2. The Prisoners at the Joy are suffering inhumane conditions which have
led to three attempted suicides, One murder, one serious assault and
numerous unreported assaults.

Info on the Mater buying process has been available for some weeks in the
public domain-specifically the 'Sunday Business Post'.

=you are being screwed by the vested interests of the State and the developers
who are unable to cap their greed.

It was the largest march in Tallaght in several years..... local FF T.D. Charlie O'Connor turned up to suppor the demonstration as if the proposed closure had nothing to do with him - he was heckled by local residents who he then accussed of trying to intimidate him! Seems raising an issue of concern with your local Fianna Fail T.D. is now called "intimidation"......
