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.

Time the left in ireland adressed itself to the sectarian nature and imperialist significance of the state in the north, and republicans followed through on their espoused anti-imperialism to facing-down US imperialism, the military-industrial complex. In other words: British Army; OUT! Richard Haas; OUT! Shorts; OUT! Raytheon; OUT!

Shorts are on their way out, just like H&W. Through selfish deliberate mismanagement by fly by night big shot rampaging buisness executives property developers lining their pockets, aided and abetted by greedy politicians.

BOYCOTT THE ANTI-BRITISH ARMY MARCH
by Eric - United Class Thu, Feb 20 2003, 2:41pm
Call to Boycott the March 8th protest in Lisburn
People should boycott the March 8th march on the British Army HQ in Lisburn. The march "against war" will only stir up sectarianism. We need to unify the working class and this will only divide us. Boycott the march and build a genuine anti-war movement. Note the protest has attracted no support from any left group not the Socialist Party, Socialist Workers Party, Anarchists, Workers party, Communists etc. Well done to these groups. Boycott it to defend workers unity.

So who *is* organising it?

And what have been the reasons (ifa any) given by these various groups for *not* participating? Can you give us more information and we might be able to make a more informed choice?

The British Armed Forces are invoved in the ONGOING WAR ON IRAQ.

The RIR in particular is part of the spearhead Airborne Brigade which is earmarked to be first into Iraq.

i just wanted to ask these questions as i would go along to the march as i live in Lisburn but just to clarify what the reasons were doing it for. are we going it to highlight the fact ordinairy lisburn people in the army are going to iraq for no reason other than oil then i'll be there.

More details please. This seems like a hoax message. How can I support this or encourage others to with so little information?

author by Durutti Columnpublication date Thu Feb 20, 2003 18:37author address author phone Report this post to the editors

It should also highlight the fact that the British Army is an Imperiast Army?

Or would that be sectarian?

Remember when the SP wanted a British Army recruiting stall in QUB?

the SP trying to wriggle their way out of picketing a British Army Base.

author by chris loughlin - sppublication date Fri Feb 21, 2003 14:06author address author phone Report this post to the editors

i simply asked what the reasons are i will help picket the HQ there but we have to get support of lisburn people, a mate of mine has been posted to kuwait for the war already. ordinairy people from lisburn are in the army for economic reasons ie not being able to get a job anywhere else etc. that's what we need to highlight. and that the money for the army would be better off going to public services like the firefighters, nurses, doctors, teachers and for better infrastructure for buses etc.
so, can somebody clarify details tell me if it is a hoax or not?

author by John Murphypublication date Fri Feb 21, 2003 17:36author address author phone Report this post to the editors

Its simple really. Like all anti-war protests. It's against the war on Iraq. No blood for oil. Assemble 2.00pm at the entrance to British Army HQ The British Army will be killing people in Iraq shortly using resources that could be use for human beeneffit else where. We can stop them if enough of us have the will. If thats too difficult for you then don't come.
