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.

all out.
That is the worst poster I have ever seen. Seriously, if you want people to get involved in this action then this is the worst way of going about it. Is it a anarcho-punk protest?
Actually, it is a very poor poster- even from a communication point of view- the date and time should be clearer and more prominent.
Is there a march against student fees on the 22nd?
I've heard rumours of it in DIT but no actual posters or anything.
I like the poster.
This demo is on monday (and i like the poster).
the all dublin anti-fees demo is on wednesday. meeting @ 1:30pm at the spire.
Best of luck to all out in UCD tonight when Lenihan rolls in.
Call him a bollocks, on behalf of grannies everywhere ;)
Get a report up quick too, interested in seeing if he even shows up after UCD students stopped the last FF Minister (well, he didn't show up...so I suppose its fair to say they stopped him!)
Go neirí libh.
The poster helped produce a good demo judging from reports in the national media today .It is a pity though that there isn't a left leaning Irish website that could carry reports of such protests as they happen .
There is a left leaning website that can collate the experiences of student demonstrations like this, you are on it. The responsibility to provide the media lies with the students themselves. Did they have someone on point on a computer down in the arts block or wherever where they could phone in reports and photos? It's one method of getting around the relative media silence on events like this.
I wasn’t talking about collating experiences , but reporting on them .Yes there was somebody with a mobile phone at UCD last night ,but what I'd like to see is a site that you could instantly send a report of a demo like this to , where it could be published straight away and readers could perhaps ask questions to the person who sent in the report .
Fair play to “reporter”who posted on this thread btw.

There will be a report back on the Lenihan protest & the USI demo tomorrow night. We are currently working on our own website. The combinations of essays and other college work, jobs and the small time gap between protests, limits the ability to respond quickly.
