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.

Activists arrested under Anti-Terror laws
by anon 3:21pm Sat Nov 16 '02


Yesterday 15/11/02, at dawn, police arrested 42 activists in southern Italy on the charge of "subversive association" and "political conspiracy to disturb government activity through subversive propaganda against the economic order". This is possible under article 270 bis part of Italy’s new anti terrorist law which has come into force since September 11. Of the 42 arrested 11 men and two women have been placed in solitary confinement in maximum security prisons without being allowed to consult their lawyers. They have also been accused of connections to last years G8 protest in Genova and the Napoli Global Forum. Among the arrested is Francesco Caruso, spokesman for the NO GLOBAL movement of Naples.

This is a direct assault on the freedom of political dissent. Imprisonment is the State’s only answer to the cry of resistance against unemployment, exclusion, poverty and social ostracism. It is an attack against the attempt to build a political network based on the real needs of people in the southern part of Italy. The movement becomes consciousness and begins to work on the problems of unemployment, immigration, the right to housing, water and healthcare it becomes the focus of accusations by the state.

I know personally 4 of the prisoners. To my knowledge none of these people has ever been involved in acts of violence or criminal attacks. They have been accused of "thought crimes". They are imprisoned for their deep political and social convictions. Their crime has been to denounce social injustice and the power of the Mafia in southern Italy.

The raid has been supported by the "ethical obligation" of the mainstream media who have published the names and personal details of the accused. This kind of operation points the finger at all people who dissent. They are tightening the noose around the neck of the unemployed, of the students, of the workers and of the immigrants.

It is no coincidence that this has taken place after the peacful Global Forum in Florence. If these arrests had occured before the Florence demonstrations it is likely that Italy would have seen a demonstration more violent than the G8 summit in Genova last year. In solidarity with the prisoners the father of the young demonstrator shot by police at the G8 and other prominent figures have denounced themselves to police as "co-conspiritors". These arrests are a clear example of the vagueness of the new anti-terrorist laws which makes them applicable to anyone who disagrees with the current social and political status quo. Similar anti-terrorist laws have been passed around the world in the wake of September 11. It is only a matter of time before similar arrests are made in other "democratic" countries. IF YOU ARE READING THIS YOU ARE PART OF A SUBVERSIVE "TERRORIST" NETWORK!!

FREE THE PRISONERS NOW!!

state oppression
by Michael Thomas

Just having returned from the very successful European Social Forum and the demonstration of 500 000 - 1000 000 peaceful marches against the American war mongering in Iraq and the injustice of the pro-corporate globalisation policies of the G8 nations I am appalled by this reaction by the Italian police and Belisconi government...

This act will not stifle this new hope which is spreading through Europe and the world; that we, the people, will not only voice our opinion but will continue to act against the oppression of the Neo-liberal State run Imperialistic system. Nothing that the police state and fascist governments do can stop the wheel of time. And their time has come. It is time for change and we are winning!

to Europe in these last few years.
yet more fled the anglo-american block which includes Ireland and Canada.
However "the corrupt US government" is not just Bush 1 + 2 and recently nascent Bush 3 (Jeb) the enemy of democracy and freedom is well represented on the other side, the side that voted 23 against invading Iraq in the Senate. We observing in relative safety from Europe for the moment, know that now disinformation is coming from the Democrat camp, and we have little reason to think that their version of White House continuity of recent Bush enabling acts will be any different. Thus we are understandably very worried and suspicious.
The military industrial complex which works hand in hand with the oil industry complex has only 500 million barrels of Oil left. Since that no serious efforts have been made to use alternative energy sources by either Republican or Democrat interests it seems likely that the Democrats will continue the War and Oil and Disinfo policy.
We in Europe must continue to protest, but also to be aware that the EU is developing quickly to a superstate a reality unmatched by the feelings of its citizens who still due to linguistic and cultural diversity think only of local problems.
We in Europe must be thinking of the European allocation of those 500 million barrels of oil and working on sustainable options to Oil based energy sources, as has been pointed out Europe yet again is on the frontline of "western civilisation´s theatre of war".

The American underground is seriously pissed off. You will, in short order, have the pleasure of watching the corrupt US government fall. I ask that you keep up your anti-war, anti-WTO/IMF, and anti-american protests, to help force our media into broadcasting these messages.
Thus, when the cops get violent here, the middle classes will align with the protestors.
Time is short. I thank you for your efforts. America, the land of the free, will be again soon.
Wouldn't that be nice?
Peace.

There they have left in peace Florence while they prepared the saucer: other that pacifist, other that not violent... here the bombaroli, i black block etc etc.

Of fact we are risospinti behind to fight on a not advanced land, to send to that country the girotondini and how many would want to sign change them in.bianco to the magistracy.

What they have not been able to make Florence, they are making it hour the companions of the net of the South I thought that the right to dissent was sanctioned and protected from the Constitution and other international organisms. Evidently it is not therefore. Florence has been a beautifulst moment of encounter between various truths that they want to construct an other world of freedom, equality and social justice. The fact that is putting in argument puts into effect it them economic ordering and the fact that nearly 1 million persons has manifested PACIFICALLY, is not piaciuto to our Government. " All " hoped in a second Genoa but, being remained disappointed, have arrested the companions with the hope to criminalize and to divide the movement. This will not happen, indeed, we will be still more joined incazzati and more. DISOBEDIENT ANCH' I.
