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.

R.A.F. to enforce No Fly Zone over US Embassy Sat Dec 7

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday December 05, 2002 20:55author by General A. R. Strike - Resistance Air Forceauthor email globalise_resistance at yahoo dot com Report this post to the editors

Will the Yankees allow the weapon inspectors into the bunker before the deadline?!!!

General A.R. Strike of the Resistance Air Force announced at a press conference yesterday that they would be enforcing the No Fly Zone over the American Embassy 'Bunker' this Saturday, December 7th, in accordance with Irish and International laws guaranteeing the island's neutrality.


"At the moment, the Yankee Bunker is refusing to let our weapons inspectors inside, and if they fail to let them in by 3.30pm on Saturday,we may have no other choice but to call for support and start strikes" he insisted.

Dismissing the American regime's calls that they had claim to the airspace over the Bunker, General Strike said that as long as Bush and
his cohorts, Sharon and Blair, flouted both Article 21 of the Irish Constitution (forbidding foreign military powers to use Irish soil for
war) and U.N. directives such as Resolution 242 (calling for an immediate Israeli withdrawal from occupied Palestine), he had no option but to authorise strikes and enforce the No Fly Zone.

"Workers strikes, that is. All over Europe on Feb 15th. Direct action, campus occupations, protests at military bases and airports.No US warplanes to land at Shannon. Or Knock! Or Baldonnell!


Assemble the Resistance Air Force at 13 hundred hours and thirty (1.30pm, civilian) sharp, on the runway in front of Trinity's Front Gate
this Saturday Dec 17. Bring your paper airplanes, your Red Zeppellins, your 99 Red balloons, your helium and your revolutionary kites. Join the weapon inspectors division, or the Love Army ground troops.

We fly for freedom, peace and resistance! Let's enforce the no fly zone."

The General has now left the building. God help us all.

This sounds like a great idea, but why the lag time (strike Feb 15th)? And why do a totally symbolic weapons inspection at the US Embassy (where, in fareness there aren't any nukes I guess) when there's a need for real weapons inspections at Shannon Airport?

Load up the love bombs on that Gluaiseacht Gyrocopter. Symbolic theatre does not negate direct action at Shannon- different time and place. Though if those pesky weapons inspectors hop the fence, will it be Kent State 2? Danny! Don't do it! Yer too young!

Anti war call

12-11-2002


To all citizens of Europe
Together we can stop this war !

We, the European social movements are fighting for social rights and social justice, for democracy and against all forms of oppression.

We stand for a world of diversity, freedom and mutual respect.

We believe this war, whether it has UN backing or not, will be a catastrophe for the people of Iraq - already suffering because of the embargo and the Saddam Hussein regime - and for people across the Middle East. It should be opposed by everyone who believes in democratic, political solutions to international conflicts because it will be a war with the potential to lead to global disaster.

There is a massive opposition to war in every country of Europe. Hundreds of thousands have already mobilised for peace.

We call on the movements and citizens of Europe to start continent wide resistance to war, and to :

1.organising massive opposition to an attack on Iraq starting now
2.if war starts to protest and organise actions immediately and call for national demonstrations the next saturday
3.to start organising enourmous anti war demonstrations in every capitals on February 15th.

We can stop this war.
