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.

fisi is a Kiswahili word meaning hyena. Does 'fis' have any hidden lexical connotations? Hapa ni shida kubwa bwana.
The political wing of the Prolifers?
Pat, perhaps Geraldine means that you did not consult other Green Party local groups in Wicklow of your decision to resign........... I wish you well Pat and always did. I know you from old.
http://dublinopinion.com/2010/09/04/the-irish-times-now...self/
Geraldine, Bray is not my constituency area??
Connemara man, Fís Nua means New Vision - it has nothing to do with fish. Funny though :-)
The Irish word for fish is "iasc".
Not "fis".
.
Pat you did a solo run on us in Bray and you know it.
Caroline,
Maybe that's the way your mind works, but I certainly have hopes and ambitions for this country which far far outweigh any personal ambitions. The country is rapidly going down the tubes - it's incumbent on anybody who can to try their best to prevent this from happening.
I have great regard for Ciaran as an ex-colleague, but the Green Parlimentary Party has done so much damage that good councillors like Ciaran and other green ex-councillors could not even hold on to their seats. What realistic chances would they have in a General Election?
Dear Pat,
You resigned from the Green Party to get maximum publicity for youself because you knew you would not get the nod to run as a TD against Cllr Ciaran O'Brien.
Hi Shayne,
If we were all to lie down and complain till the cows came home, there would never be any change in the status quo. I'm not saying Fís Nua has all the answers - but the door is open to any individual, groups or organisations who believe that what they say matters. Rome wasn't built in a day, and we have to start somewhere. But thanks for taking the time to comment anyway.
Just FYI, there have been no election candidates selected as yet. Selection will be up to all members in any given constituency area. If you want to read our constitution, you will find it on the website: www.fisnua.com
Kind regards
Cllr Pat Kavanagh
Independent Green
Old Codger, you are more than welcome to make a submission to Fís Nua's proposals if you feel that the wording of the policies is not strong enough. We are committed to political reform and doing away with the 'old boy's network' that permeates throughout the whole rotten system. Your imput would be appreciated. email info@fisnua.com
This organisation have no chance whatsoever-they are too far detacthed from reality and just wouldn't have the kind of experience to get people elected or a national level. The Green candiadte in Wicklow isnt in politics a wet day and is not a credible candidate. Like is just another talk shop on top of a million other groups-will only split vites and help Fine Gael in. This is reality.
Probably another Spanish trawler.But sure they have to mix something with their chips too. And besides, our trawlers have been off the African coasts doing their share of damage. Then when the Africans find they cannot compete with the mega-fleets and try to get ashore in Europe to fed themselves we fuck them back like they were undernourished sprats.
Best wishes to you all.
A new party has to take the bull by the horns and have a firm policy to reform politics. I see nothing in your manfiesto stating that you will make political criminals pay for their crimes. Both the Judiciary and the Gardai have been corrupted by the govrnment and they also need to be reformed. You say that you support the policies of Shell to Sea but make no comment on the fact that the Irish people are deliberately being denied access to International law by both Fianna Fail and the greens. THE Aarhus Convention has not and will not be ratified by our corrupt government. They do not want people to have any input into what happens in their communities.
Many promises were made by a party that professed to hold the same ideals as you, but all were renaged upon when they went into government with known criminals.
Unless you can convince the public that you are truthfull and mean what you say (and that will be tough in the situation this country is in) then you will have wasted your time.
The deeds of the crooks that have been selling our nation down the drain have not all been revealed yet ,many secrets have yet to be uncovered.
I still haven't seen a better logo than this one
