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. The Saker >>

Dublin - Event Notice Thursday January 01 1970 New Screening Of The Dublin Film Qlub -Mädchen In Uniform
LESBIAN REBELS: "Mädchen in Uniform" (1931)
.......................................................................................................................................................
MÄDCHEN IN UNIFORM
The final film in our Season One, and perhaps the best! A celebration of love as a transformative and empowering experience, and a condemnation of censorship and authoritarian rule. This film is a hymn to freedom – freedom to think, to feel, to speak, to be, ...
..........................................................................................................................................................
The Film Qlub is delighted to welcome a very special guest to introduce this film:
DEBORAH BALLARD
- Film Festival programmer, journalist, editor, and activist
"Mädchen in Uniform"
Germany, 1931. B&W. 84min.
Dir. Leontine Sagan.
Cast: Hertha Thiele, Dorothea Wiek, Ellen Schwannecke, Emilia Unda
Script: Christa Winsloe, from her own plays, with Friedrich Dammann
This German masterpiece was the last outstanding artwork to deal openly with homosexuality, before the Nazis began to burn “degenerate” art, and before the American Hayes Censhorship Code banned gay representation, for the sake of “decency”. "Mädchen in Uniform" marks the end of an era, after three decades of (sometimes giddy or sometimes dead-serious, but always unapologetic) queer story-telling in film. It was not until the 1960s that matter-of-fact representation of homosexuality would return to the screen. And what a glorious parting gift this is! A fantastic script, superb performances, and a stunning cinematography, featuring a melt-in-the-mouth lighting (you will want to lick this film) which is yet to be surpassed.
Written by a woman, directed by a woman, with an all-female cast, and set in a girls’ school, this tale of romance and rebellion is often read as a (lesbian) feminist critique of authority. Yes, the resident tyrant –the Principal- is also a woman, but as film historian Richard Dyer points out, she is visually coded to evoke Frederik the Great. And in any case, she represents the dangers of centralised power, in any form and in any place (Libya, Chechenya, Ireland). The film is a call to individuals and communities to take back control of their lives. As the new Irish government takes the reins to our country’s future, this rare screening of "Mädchen in Uniform" is a great opportunity to reflect on the “L” words: Love, Law, and Loans – that is, the people’s loan of their trust, in a democracy.
.........
Day membership: 8 euro
Free tea, coffee, and cake.
Everybody is welcome.
..........
After this screening of "Mädchen in Uniform", the Dublin Film Qlub will take a few months break before it starts its Season Two, but watch out for our collaboration with the International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival in May...
