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.

Been an admirer of LASC since the seventies. Our current conditions, with their re-echoes of Latin American debt-traps makes it all the more relevant and appropriate that they are, again, the locus. Its a bit like the King of Spain touring Venezuela just after the death of Bolivar, not fucking yet thanks.
Yeah... the idea of giving our own details to the Guards does sound odd and certainly will not be for everyone but some of us have already become 'known to the Gardai' more than once though protest activities and have little to lose by doing this.
Others of us have no record and probably won't ever have one unless someone like Pinochet takes over in which case all of us posting here are probably already profiled by the sites we surf or friends we call on our mobile phones, and if they want to we could all probably be picked up on the first morning of the coup and in that eventuality my friends we will all meet up interned in Croke Park.
I don't believe it will give the Gardai any significant intelligence-gathering advantage to know that I am going to a talk and a party. I don't think any activist who could be compromised by it would attend this event. It's a choice we can make as activists, nobody else is putting us in danger.
I'm a member of LASC (I think - I probably let it lapse but I am definitely a supporter) but I might not visit the centre more than onse every 2years. But I want to attend this because it's annoying to be told by the state that I can't. LASC is right in the zone where all conventional protest is banned - it's between Kildare St and Merrion St - and it's happening at a time when the state is making a serious attempt to quash the right of free assembly. To have this mocking party, that obeys the letter of the law but that will probably cause worry and stress to the watchers but that the state will find hard to ban outright without some embarassment, can be seen as a creative attempt at reclaiming the centre . I dont' think LASC deserve to be derided for this - maybe comrades you can employ your undoubted verbal virtuosity on mocking the queen and her gombeens.
Having said that, good luck with your own protests and activism this May month.
..coming round again.
Cut Public Spending, Beat Yourself Up.
Sorry, should have written BYOB = bring your own booze. Eds please correct that small typo for me thanks.
Answer to the quiz::
PYOHC of course stands for Provide your own handcuffs.
I've just worked out that BYOP stands for " Bring your own booze"
How about this one : PYOHC
Surely the gardai will have enough on their hands during the royal visit . Couldn't we just send our details straight to Harcourt Street ?
Very interesting, but the gardai already have my name and date of birth and even more info about me. You do realise that you are putting activists in danger by giving their personal info to the gardai, don't you?
