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.

Not just one: a thousand threads bloomed to tell the story of Sean Garland. So forge ahead and read them. Mind your fingers though, the ink might still be wet.
Here are just a few:

Common sense prevailed.
Taken straight from the Phoenix that well known source of insider information in the CIA and international diplomacy.
The story was in Phoenix nearly a fortnight ago and the Phoenix ads have been pushing it on the radio for over a week. It appears you have awoken Seamus. Don't know how accurate the story is though, Phoenix sometimes make things up or add 2 and 2 and get 111.
I'll certainly rest easy in my bed with that knowledge
- could they not have cooked up any thing on Eoin Harris - I guess appalling bad jounalism isn't an extra-ditable?
kp
Speaking of good journalism: a good journalist always checks the spelling of names. I presume you are referring to Eoghan Harris.
Yes, good to hear that Garland won't be extradited. Ironic when you think of the WPs support for extradition over the years. Funny though, the sdame people who were opposing Garlands extradition, Enda Kenny, Pat Rabbotte, were calling for the extradition of the Colombia 3!
Good to hear this story, the whole Seán Garland thing was little more than an American attempt to get in a vindictive jab at an Irish politician who had the chutzpah to oppose their war in Iraq - unfortunately for Garland, he had known links to the Korean Workers Party so it was not too much of a leap for the Washington to mix Garland up in the superdollar debacle (has that been proven, by the way?).
As for stances on the Colombia 3 - rather hypocritical, perhaps, but the C3 were (allegedly) involved in training a terrorist group so at least there's some justification for it.
Now the WP can go back to obscurity...
If you access some of the links provided you will see that a case was certainly made for Garlands involvement in the supper dollar ring. He has yet to explain his links with English gangsters, ex KGB officers and how he can afford to stay in $500 a night suites in 5 star hotels in Moscow. Maybe the WP give good expenses.
Theres also the matter of the WP front company GKI and why was Sean Garland (as a rep of GKI) meeting with Madam Bao, a leading member of the Chinese CP. Apparently it was to discuss business opportunities. Its all there, check out the previous threads.
As for the Columbia 3 training terrorists, well Sean Garland led a terrorist organisation for years, the OIRA.
just remembering.
But he never claimed to be a Marxist. Less of the "red" herrings please.
"the whole Seán Garland thing was little more than an American attempt to get in a vindictive jab at an Irish politician who had the chutzpah to oppose their war in Iraq"
Maybe the N koreans invented a clever trail that led back to Garland knowing the Americans would then spend all their time getting in their jab leaving the crafty commies to take over the world...
You are wise beyond your years, stickie.
Yes I must acknowledge the Phoenix was my source of information on this story, however as I live abroad my copy of the magazine arrives 1-2 weeks after publication. As I never heard anymore on indymedia about the fate of the supreme stickie commander I thought I might share it with readers of Indymedia, not all of whom are readers of the Phoenic I presume?
Anyway, Im sure this leaves Garland free to develop the old WP HQ in Dublin and make a nice retirement package for himself....
Seamus
-forgot to send thanks to those who posted the links to previous threads on this subject, many of which are hilariously funny, highly recommended if you are a stickie hater and havent read them already....
S
Krossie,
Eoghan Harris is no longer a Stalinist (A-hem) nor does he preach the gospel of Mao as he once did. He is a Conservative Unwilling to Negociate with Terrorists. If you see what I mean.
was worth something to someone somewhere some time & not just in dud supernotes &
It is not important that his own people never saw it.
fair play to him.
It would have made for good memoires though generally the lack of memoires is part of the deal. I suppose if any of you have a copy of PN14342 it's past time now to realise it really is worth something after all. Once upon a time as told to you in the safe depths of the archives where no editor could collate it easily - the 100$ note was worth about 100€ but no-one paid that much for it - great! that'0s why they were almost as popular as the 50stg equivalent. You could buy a skateboard, 2 hits of crack, an appointment at the midwife and the bus from Draweeda. But now they really are valuable. collectors' items I'm going to leave my mine in Andorra.
What a wonderful chapter of history is closed. Benjamin Franklin (the man on the note) would have been delighted. A little consolation link to jolly roger's guide to faking money
