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.

offsite link 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.

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

offsite link 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.

Why is it necessary to have this event in a bar? This would be contrary to Muslim sensibilities. Sheikh Ahmed Yassin himself often spoke out against drink. Bars are often destroyed in Gaza and the patrons beaten up.

It's not the Irish Muslim Solidarity Campaign, it's the Irish Palestine Solidarity Campaign. Many Palestinians are not Muslims, they have different faiths or none. The Koran forbids a lot of things that shouldn't be forbidden and permits a lot of things that shouldn't be permitted (as does the Bible, of course). Fair play to the IPSC for organising this event

The Palestinians would not want solidarity to be financed from alcoholic events. With the re conquest of Al Quds there will be no bars even for non-Muslims.

So the Palestinians have appointed you to be their spokesman, eh? I don't suppose there would be any place for Christians, Jews or athiests in the 'liberated' Palestine you dream of. The Palestinians have never supported any plan to impose a religious fundamentalist dictatorship - whether Christian, Jewish or Muslim,they're all equally bad. When Hamas came first in the elections two years ago, the vote for Fatah and the left-wing parties was still well over 50%. Hamas won support because they were determined opponents of the occupation, and because they were not corrupt like the Fatah leadership. Many of the people who voted for them in 2006 would have voted for the secular leftist Mustafa Barghouti when he stood against Abbas the previous year. I'd imagine most Palestinians would be delighted to know that people are organising solidarity fund-raisers for their cause in Ireland and they don't consider shutting down bars to be the main priority when their country is under a brutal occupation.

Hi Fayadeen, I think 'Abdullah's' comment is pretty obviously a wind-up. It's the way a right-winger would imagine all of 'the Muslims' to talk and think.

Won't be able to make it to the DIT talk but hope it goes well, and look forward to seeing folks at the quiz!
