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.

Actually, it's still officially 'Londonderry'. The Royal Charter naming it so has never been amended.

The Mind boggles when you consider the speed with which these idiots were arrested and sentenced, when the scum which terrorises our communities seem to be immune from prosecution and are allowed continue unhindered by the PSNI.
Then again the Bohemian fans idiots though they are, don't work as informers and they do come from the South.

Another attempt by the Shinners to curry favour with the Unionists. Their attempts at reaching out to Unionism keeps getting thrown back in their faces as what happened today with the Irish Language. Their response was muted as usual.
They weren't as quick throwing out the killers of McCartney as they were a football lout.

Sean There is a big difference. This lad admitted that he was guilty fo the offence that he was accused of. Therefore it was quite easy and proper to dismiss him. It is a bit harder for any organisation to dismiss someone if they deny the offences or not be accused of any offences in the first place as happened in the McCartney case.

Sinn Fein are utter hypocrites. They have milked the football scene for money for the last 10 years, encouraged all the shite Scottish bands that play Fraziers, all the mindless 'oh ah up the ra' crap, while party members have been running about with two of Dublin's major clubs battering each other. What did they expect?
Mind you, if some poor idiot gets expelled for throwing bottles in a Prod pub, what should happen to Bik McFarlane and co?

author by Mackserpublication date Wed Oct 17, 2007 15:46author address author phone Report this post to the editors

I dont like those bands myself, personally think them crap, but what has that to do with these idiots smashing up a bar? Nothing.
