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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Brendan O'Connor is nothing but a failed comic and an RTE minor personality who is desperately trying to restart his flagging career. This jumped up little oik (who makes me ashamed to be from cork) is nothing more than a reactionary hack, who displays all the symptoms of lazy journalism and titillation that have defined the Irish Corporate media.
Let him speak because when he does he only strengthens our arguments
I have a great clip from Newstalk where he justifies America killing innocent Iraq kids for Oil, then when loosing the argument he accusers all the listeners of "being unemployed" as they were listening to daytime radio.
Brendan (who reads Indymedia, as he quoted it on air) you are a sad individual, but you our cause a world of good if you are the best spokesman they have for the WAR you seem to want so much
I'm ready to take him on!Get him to e mail me, and I'll kick his alco liver to nought!Gombeen man, may his life turn to shite...
Poor Brendan, you forget that his journalism is quite funny even if you don't agree with it. . So fair play to the woman who slagged the Gardai? Why? Cause she had to stir shit with the Gardai who were actually doing a good job? After they had reopened Dame street one protester started playing with his devil sticks in front of a bus. A Garda pulled him off the road, he did it again and got pulled off the road. Then ten minutes later he did it again and was arrested this time. THe Gardai were booed as they took him away. THis knob end had his time to protest, and then when it was over the Gardai gave him two chances to quit acting like a dick and he didnt take them. Fair play for arresting the Spa
dont know if i'd go as far as supporting their arrest but some "jugglers" were making a nuisance
of themselves on the march. juggling on the top of a sign post is not a good idea, especially when the juggler is either drunk or incompetent.
jugglers = pricks
Some may remember a headline in either the independant or the sunday independant the day before the elections called by the rainbow government.
The headline read "It's Payback Time". The article in general was unfairly critical of the government, especially in light of previous FF adminstrations prior to that.
Interestingly, a consortium in which Tony O'Reilly had been involved in had lost the bid for the second mobile license not too long before.
Payback for what I wonder?
Independant Newspapers are by no means above attempting to play politics in a very murdochesque fashion. I noted Brendan O'Connor's comments about indymedia some weeks ago - hardly surprising as this kind of site (and others like cryptome, opendemocracy etc) represent a sort of antithesis to large scale media entities like Independant Newspapers.
Should these new mediums of news and comment become more commonplace, the larger media establishments will have lost much of their political power. It is very much in their interest to dismiss sites such as this. As for O'Connor's comment that "any lunatic" can post on Indymedia I think that even given several years of archives you would be hard pressed to encounter such garbage as Eamonn Dunphy (who not too long ago wrote some of the most patheticly arse-kissing, blatantly biased and wholly untrue praise of CJ Haughey I have ever read) Terry Keane, Eoghan Harass, who for a supposed political commentator shows a surprising right-wing bias and scant regard for human life/decency.... etc etc.
