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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7I stated that 1100 people have executed in the US since 1986, that should read 1976.
The Chinese execute more people annually than the rest of the world combined.
A startling fact and one that is overlooked in the west in light of greater economic co-operation. The west likes China now so refuses to demonise it. China has the worst HR record of any country on the planet yet we hear very little of this from the West.
There is sleight of hand in the headline here since there is no comparison between the numbers executed in China and the US and only by combining the toll of 32 years back to 1976 were it possible to come up with a figure of over ONE thousand over all of this period for the US. Moreover execution is a very rare event in the US considering the size of the population now over 300 million. Also the thread deliberates conflates judicial execution with murder. There are entirely distinct concepts that anyone can understand yet language is abused and intelligence insulted by confusing them. The Government of Iraq is autonomous with respect to its own laws and it is facing a deadly civil war as well as such blood soaked specimens as Chemical Ali left over from the Baathist days. In these circumstances some number of executions might be excused. China is not a democracy or a pluralist State and it has executed for so called political crime as well as crime ordinary. Moreover it also has no independent judiciary – that is just another arm of the part. Any comparison with the US does not sand up.
Executions in the USA since the reintroduction of the death penalty when compared on an intensity & representational basis with China must take into account the clusters of sentances passed & carried out state by state (in the case of the USA) or province by province (in the case of PRC). you didn't do that. If you had you'd see Texas executes much more people than Xinuan (just for example). Hunan out kills Oregon (just for another example). Sure, fiddle me giggling & merry, Sceptic if we do the demographic representation thing Bloody Sunday was worse than Tianamen Square. But & now I'll concede a point here, coz I'm fair & not looking to provoke you into revealing your prison record - if we compare federal execution warrents in the US to "one state" equivalents in PRC (carried out by the red army) the Chinese are worse by far. What can we learn from this? There's a big difference between a western Chinese ZAL and Texas? Numbers as Galileo's inquisitor said, may crunch whatever way your torturer wants?
I preferred you when you were using your other fake name ID author field names.
A country that does not execute people for serious crime including theft is clearly barbarous. The Irish and the Indians in America were barbarians and did not have the death until they were civilized by the English.
Naturally since the different states of the US have differing views on the death penalty there will be differences in the pattern. But so what? Is there some rule there has to be uniformity of practice in a federal system? Also the fact remains that even among the population of convicted first-degree murderers in the US the rate of execution is very low.
