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.

A Notice for the Top of the Hill...and Back Down Again

Below is the text in a notice that is being sent to all members of SIPTU. I had just a quick glance and it reads like a sticking plaster. It is well worth debating.

TO: ALL MEMBERS

RE: March for “A Better, Fairer Way” – Saturday 27th November, 11.30 a.m. Wood Quay, Dublin

The country is in the throes of the most serious economic crisis in our history. This is because the Government allowed speculators, bankers and developers run riot. They then included useless institutions in a State Credit Guarantee Scheme, mortgaging all our futures.

Their solution is to promise the most savage budget ever. This is consistent with the course they have followed since the collapse over two years ago. It is completely unfair and it has not worked. Indeed, it is actually making matters worse. We need a fair and credible plan for investment and growth. This is necessary to get our people back to work and to rebuild our economy. It is also what is required to convince the Bond Markets to lend the money needed to run the country. Middle and Lower Income families cannot be expected to endure misery whilst those who caused the problem go on living pretty much as they always have.

We must not stand idly by. ICTU has called a March and Rally in support of the demand for a better, fairer way, on Saturday 27th November in Dublin. There are more ways of influencing budgetary policy than waiting until whenever the Government sees fit to call a General Election. It may be too late by then. A big turnout would force them to re-think their quick fix strategy which clearly is not working. They would have to provide for massive investment from the National Pension Reserve Fund. This would create thousands of jobs. Moreover, they would also have to impose a fair share of the burden on the wealthiest people in our society thus alleviating the impact on working people and those dependent upon public services.

All members are urged to participate.

It is good to see the people of Ireland waking up to the fact we are f**ked. We have been shafted up the a**se for over 10 years. our money wasted and political leaders and oppositin parties all working the system. No body at any level took any real action and those who tried found that the system is designed to block any action. There is an action that "joe soap" can take and that is use the vote properly. Unfortunately the majority of this nation voted back into power the people that have wrecked it. there were all sorts of warnings over the years about these guys, but everyone was to busy enjoying the cash flowing around to notice or even bother to look. Nice was overthrown and Lisbon was overthrown by the same apathy and the people believed all the parties lies, JOBS RECOVERY. Then also Fianna Fail were voted back in over and over again. I agree with the angry sentiment and I agree there should be more action taken at all levels, including public show of strenght and peaceful demonstrations. What I total disagree with is, anyone who has voted for this shower and then voted for the lies in Lisbon and Nice and ignored what these traitors were doing. I dont believe they have anything to protest about...Before anyone starts complaining and protesting ask yourself one question, Are you to blame?

Anraoi you are correct in what you say above. The voters who elected the current gombeens are about to elect the other shower of twedeldee gombeens instead. I see no evidence to show that the irish are escaping from their slave minds. RTE and the media have played a big part in this, and years of partnership with their betters in ibec etc also had a role in messing up their thinking. We will all suffer big time now for these political and economic traitors who voted yes yes to the Nice and Lisbon referenda. They are squealing a bit now because they might have to raise their beloved Corporation tax a couple of percent but soon they be fully fledged slaves in most senses and not just their minds which has long been the case.
