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.

Should we Abandon Liberal Democracy in Favour of the Singaporean Model? Sun Oct 05, 2025 15:00 | Toby Young
For those who think liberal democracy is the best form of government, Singapore poses a challenge. It's a technocratic, one-party state characterised by ruthless central planning. Yet it's been astonishingly successful.

Firstly, alot of the pressure of Israel is not denying that they have the right to protect themselves, off course they do, but can you justify for me how the murder of 270ish Children is defense? 884 civilians have been reported as murdered already in Gaza, an area which is too small to properly carry out an accurate military attack on Hamas, who are legally and democratically elected. 14 Israelis Soldiers have been killed in Gaza, four of whom were killed by Israeli Soldiers. The pressure on Israel is due to the unproportionate murder.
I won't cliam to be knowledgable in the History of Palestine, but I will say the attacks on Gaza are wrong, as too many innocent people are being murdered.
ta an pictiur an-mhaith. saor palestine
Hi again , Moshe !
I note in your reply (above) that you did not dis-agree with the statement by Israeli military leader and politician Moshe Dayan that Israelis are '...settlers in Gaza (using) steel helmets and gun barrels..... '
No doubt you will now attempt a verbal contortion to 'explain' that description away ?
Thanks!
Sharon.
Moshe says.... 'Jews and Arab Muslims live side by side in the State of Israel.'
gush-shalom.org says....
Jews and Arab Muslims live side by side in the State of Israel.
Arab Muslims serve loyally in Israeli military and Hamas rockets have killed an Israeli Arab Muslim in the last few days.
Israelis are committed to a two state solution - an Israeli state and a Palestinian state living in peaceful co-existence.
Hamas however and the Palestinians who voted for them, are dedicated to Israel's destruction, the conquest of Israeli territory and the murder of all Israeli Jews.
No doubt Israeli Arab Muslims, Druze, Samaritans and Christians who live in Israel will also be targets for mass murder.
Palestinians will witness an end to war and occupation when they recognise the State of Israel and stop attacking Israel.
Gaza is no longer occupied by Israeli soldiers or the 9,000 Israeli settlers the Sharon government removed by force.
What was the result?
Palestinians elected Hamas and since then the daily rocket attacks have not stopped.
Israel has the right to defend itself and Israel will defend itself.
Stop appeasing terror.
yes my freind, your right, jews have lived there long time.... but remember they are arab jews that have been there long time, not the mostly white european jews that claim palestine as there own and that currently occupy that land... yes thats right ARAB JEWS, ARAB CHRISTIANS and ARAB MUSLIMS all lived in this land together, could you imagine if all chrisians in the world tried to claim the holy lands fo themeselves, this is wot foreign jews are doing not the arab jews who along with muslim arabs and christian arabs have lived in palestine long time. why are jewish people in denial of the native bloodline all people of this region possess (if they are native holy landes or decendents). moshe, good luck getting your head round this obvious truth..
Hi Moshe !
"Israel has been continuously inhabited by the Jews for thousands of years."
Another Moshe (- Dayan , an Israeli military leader and politician -) would disagree with you :
"We came here to a country that was populated by Arabs and we are building here a Hebrew, a Jewish state; instead of the Arab villages, Jewish villages were established. You even do not know the names of those villages, and I do not blame you because these villages no longer exist. There is not a single Jewish settlement that was not established in the place of a former Arab Village." (Moshe Dyan, March 19, 1969, speech at the Technion in Haifa, quoted in Ha'aretz, April 4, 1969.)
And -
"We should demand his blood not from the [Palestinian] Arabs of Gaza but from ourselves. . . . Let us make our reckoning today. We are a generation of settlers, and without the steel helmet and gun barrel, we shall not be able to plant a tree or build a house. . . ." (From page 101 of 'The Iron Wall: Israel and the Arab World' , authored by Avi Shlaim.)
Thanks!
Sharon.
Moshe Dayan - " We are settlers..."
Israel has been continuously inhabited by the Jews for thousands of years.
Thats hilarious Moshe. The Zionists claimed a right of return 100 odd years ago based on nothing other than the dubious writings of the Old Testament/Talmud saying that 2,000 years ago it had been their homeland. Yet according to you people who's families were driven out less than a century ago have no right to return because they weren't born in Israel.
The so-called Palestinian refugee problem is not the concern of Israel. There are more than 5 million Palestinians who claim to be refugees but were not born in Israel and never lived there.
The vast majority of Israelis were born in Israel, it is their homeland.
Those who talk about right of return are asking for an invasion of Israel.
Nice, really ''beautiful'' picture.
Watch out for Moshe, he will be here to criticize this soon enough.........
He will defend everything from, and seems to be 'FOR', the Iraq invasion, to Israeli attacks, to the Afghanistan 'war' and willing to fully criticize against any argument. He is not against Muslims though.
BUT, if you are 'AGAINST' mass slaughter in (places like) Gaza it is you who is against Jews... apparently!?! His arguments are beyond rationale and he is a mouthpiece for the system that divides this world. He is one sided, you'll never get any sense of reality living like that.
