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 Saker >>

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
IRISH JUNIOR SHOOTING TEAM WINS GOLD, SILVER MEDALS IN GB JUNIOR INTERNATIONAL EVENT
Bisley Camp, Surrey, UK, August 11 -- The Irish Junior Shooting Team ended off a highly successful tour this week at the 15th Annual Great Britain Junior International Event, with Susan Cunningham (17, Kells, Co. Meath) winning the Gold Medal in the Junior Women's Air Rifle Grand Prix competition and Damien Fagan (20, Navan, Co. Meath) winning the Silver Medal in the Junior Women's Air Rifle Grand Prix competition.
This brings the total medal count for the Irish Junior Shooting Team to 6. Susan Cunningham has, along with her Gold medal, the Silver medal for the Individual Junior Women's Air Rifle match from Wednesday; the Junior Women's Team of Susan Cunningham, Paula Cunningham (16, Kells, Co.Meath) her younger sister and Elizabeth O'Hagan (20, Co.Meath) won the Silver medals in the Team Junior Women's Air Rifle match, also on wednesday; and Damien's Silver Grand Prix medal makes six. This equals the previous record medal count set five years ago by a team from Wilkinstown, Co.Meath.
There were tears of joy and emotional reactions amongst all of the shooters and support staff at the outcome. The icing on the cake was when Team Manager Mark Dennehy (31, Greystones, Co.Wicklow) was asked by the National Smallbore Rifle Association to officiate at the medal presentation ceremony, which meant that he had the honour of putting the Gold medal around Susan's neck.
This event also marked the first time an Irishman has adjudicated at an international event, with Team Manager Mark Dennehy finding himself seconded to the Judges pool in an unexpectedly early exercising of his recently-granted ISSF Class B Judges' Licence.
There were a total of 165 competitors (including the Irish Junior Team) competing in the event from the official GB Junior team as well as teams from England, Scotland, Wales, N.Ireland, Denmark, Germany, the USA and Ireland.
The Irish team returned to cheers from fans and supporters at Dublin Airport last night at 18:45.

Jump To Comment: 1Great to see healthy Irish success at this sport. Few involved will forget the long years of target shooters trying to establish their entitlement to the tools of their sport only to be met by a lot of obstacles from officialdom.
