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.

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

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.

PSNI cracks down on UDA, to support Johnny Adair and LVF lovers

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Sunday December 01, 2002 00:25author by josy marley Report this post to the editors

PSNI steps in to support Johnny Adair and the LVF, by cracking down on the UDA. The PSNI harrassment of the UDA continues as the PSNI pigs attempt to protect and reinstate Johnny Adair and LVF murderers.

PSNI steps in to support Johnny Adair and the LVF, by cracking down on the UDA. The PSNI harrassment of the UDA continues as the PSNI pigs attempt to protect and reinstate Johnny Adair and his LVF murderer pals. All stops are pulled out by the PSNI and brit government to stamp out the UDA, and anyone challenging the vicious rule/power of Johnny Adair and his murdering LVF chums.

They are both gangsters. I hope the PSNI keep harrassing them, it's what they deserve!

There is a difference, the LVF and johnny Adair are PROTEGES OF THE PSNI and the brit state, thats why the PSNI have singularly failed to apprehend the LVF murderers of Marty o Hagan, Gavin Brett, Danny McColgan, Rosemary Nelson and Gerard Lawlor, all murdered by LVF smack pushing scumbags. We see that the LVF is just another covert armed wing of the PSNI. Notice the PSNI have reverted to their 'shoot to kill policy', now that johnny adair and his murdering LVF lackeys cover is blown. Games up. It is the UDA that have put a stop to the LVF's murder spree, Johnny and his lowlife LVF chums are no longer able to operate in north or east belfast and continue their murder spree against working class catholics and protestants.

It follows that LVF/Special branch PSNI are the biggest gangstas in town, running vice rings, pushing smack, blackmailing vice clientele, PSNI ivolvement in assasinations of human rights lawyers such as Rosemary nelson, bank robberies , lending explosives expertise to both renegade loyalist and republican orgs and planting bombs such as the Omagh bomb.

Funnily enough the Socialist Party along with the LVF support the 'right' of Orangemen to march down the Garvaghy road. After the 3 Quinn brothers were burned to death, even some hardened loyalists withdrew their support from the Portadown Orange Order; but the SP stood firm in their support of the march. As did the LVF.

Croppy Lie Down! This seems to be the Socialist Partys message for Catholics in the North.

Win my award for the most unconvincing personality split of the decade.

Quit ranting about how you're proud of using your own name on site Pat.

There is nothing more odious than watching you agree with yourself on threads, and nothing more laughable then refering to yourself and agreeing with yourself.

Spiliting your personality doesn't mean you're more popular Pat.....

S/He doesnt even agree with me on a lot of things. As you would know if you read our respective postings on other topics and threads.

If you are looking for Dual/Triple/Quadruple personalities, then look more closely at the SP and Southern Unionist postings.

I am the Dalek. I am not a Leninist. Exterminate! Exterminate! Whatever he says, Pat C is still a Leninist/Trot at heart. If he was a real Libertarian he would not spew out Trotsky and the fucking Comintern.

He is right sometimes though. Stopped Clock, comes to mind. The Socialist Party are a sorry bunch of specimens. Exterminate! Exterminate!

Superifical changes don't hide the fact that anyone with an ounce of cop on could see the similarities between you and Dalek. You agree about pretty much everything, and back each other up

The final straw was you both used the "croppy lie down" line in seperate threads on the same day

this is definitely stupid. i dont have enough time to do all the comments i would like to under one name.

on several occassions Different sp members use the same phraseology within the same hour. calling me a nationalist.

and then 3 different sp members raise AFA in the exact same terms.

is this one person.

what do you reckon?

its more than a little ironic having anonymous posters suggesting that i am posting under different names.

"Pat I'm bored and weary of your "GET THE BOOT IN politics" you enjoy and relish attacking those whose politics you disagree with, and woul rather spend time, damaging the credibitlily of your enemys than making your own points"

i respond & sometimetimes initiate debate. however i suggested on several occasions to the sp that we agree to disagree aboiut the national question.

if people want to abuse me, thats fine. i'm not thinskinned. but they should not be surprised if abuse is returned to them.

if the SP call me a nationalist, i'll call the SP loyalists.

"Run off and join FG"

given my politics, your suggestion makes no sense.
but i will bow my head & offer no abuse in reponse.

"Doubting Thomas takes full responsibility for the Irony levels in this post but frankly Pat is such an abusive lazy obnoxious hyprocritical cunt that he deserves it"

i am lazy, sometimes abusive, but i'm not hypocritical. call me a cunt if you want.

i dont mind "doubting thomas" & "this is stupid" believing what they want, but its just boosting imc ds ego.


author by pat cpublication date Wed Dec 04, 2002 12:37author address author phone Report this post to the editors

you didnt deal with my points about the sp. actually i dont think it is the same person. the sp either agreed on a line before the postings or one picked it up from another.

still interesting that the same line came forth. it could also be some of the indy sp regulars using different names.

however: "doubting thomas" + "this is stupid" + "ah but" = same person. DT from his postings elsewhere, shows he is virulently anti republican.
dont know if hes in the sp, wont blame them for everything.

but he shares their attitude of outrage that anyone would dare to question their beliefs.
