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.

1% Network- Anti Capitalist Walking Tour

category national | anti-capitalism | news report author Tuesday September 21, 2010 21:04author by Pilibire Report this post to the editors

The 1%

We have all heard of the ‘golden circle’. We all know that there is one law for the rich and another law for the rest of us. But did you know that just 1% of the population are estimated to own at least 34% of the wealth of the country? Property developers, landlords, bankers, barristers, media tycoons and politician are amongst the 1% that own so much, but contribute so little

Come To Our Walking Tour.

The 1%

We have all heard of the ‘golden circle’. We all know that there is
one law for the rich and another law for the rest of us. But did you
know that just 1% of the population are estimated to own at least 34%
of the wealth of the country? Property developers, landlords,
bankers, barristers, media tycoons and politician are amongst the 1%
that own so much, but contribute so little.

More Cutbacks? Make the 1% Pay?

In next December’s budget the government are going to further slash
funding for health, education, housing and social welfare. Yet again
the poor are to be made pay for the greed of the rich. It’s time the
1% started paying for the mess that they have created.

The Heartland of the Golden Circle

Like nowhere else in Ireland the districts of Dublin 2 and Dublin 4
are littered with the landmarks of the power and wealth of the 1%.
Banks, private mansions and corporate headquarters all sit side by
side in the heartland of the golden circle

A Political Tour – A Demand for Justice

On Saturday, October 9th, the 1% Network is organising a ‘political
walking tour’ through Dublin 1 and Dublin 2 to highlight the gross
inequality that lies at the heart of Irish society and to demand that
the 1% pay their fair share. Stops along the tour will include the
residences of billionaire tax dodgers, the headquarters of failed
banks and the offices of the lobby groups that protect the interest of
the 1%. The tour will assemble at the Wolfe Tone monument at the
Merrion Row corner of Stephens Green at 1pm on October 9th. The route
of the tour is about 3km long and should last about two hours. All
are welcome.

Download our poster or leaflet.

What is the 1% Network?
The 1% network is a coalition of socialist groups which has come
together to oppose the cutback agenda of the government and to promote
a socialist alternative to the current socio-economic system.
Organisations within the 1% Network include éirígí, Irish Socialist
Network, Seomra Spraoi and the Workers Solidarity Movement. Many of
these groups took part in the ‘Anti-Capitalist Block’ demonstrations
in Dublin City Centre in May of 2010.

Why does the term ‘1%’ refer to?
The name of the coalition was chosen to highlight the fact that just
1% of the population control in excess of 34% of the wealth of the
country. Property developers, landlords, bankers, barristers, media
tycoons and politicians are amongst the 1% that own so much, but
contribute so little.

What does the 1% Network aim to achieve?

The staggering wealth and influence of the 1% is rarely mentioned in
mainstream political discussions or the corporate media. At a time
when the government is implementing savage cutbacks in healthcare,
education, social welfare and housing the 1% remain virtually
untouched. The 1% Network aims to highlight the existence of Ireland’s
super rich and build a popular demand for them to contribute their
fair share.
