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

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.

Itineray details of the delegation are available on www.derossa.com

Proinsias De Rossa to lead MEP discussions with Kofi Annan, Hans Blix, Mary Robinson and leading US politicians on Iraq

On Monday (3 March) Proinsias De Rossa will jointly lead a peace delegation of more than 20 members of the European Parliament for high level discussions on Iraq at the United Nations, and with leading US politicians.

As a follow-up to their recent visit to Iraq the delegation will meet Mr Kofi Annan, Secretary General of the United Nations, UN Security Council officials, and Mary Robinson. They will also meet leading US politicians, including Senator Edward Kennedy and Nancy Pelosi, Democratic leader in the House of Representatives.

The delegation will present an Anti-War appeal to Kofi Annan, members of the Security Council, American legislators and the US government. The Anti-War Appeal has already been signed by more than 300 Parliamentarians, including Mr De Rossa and all members of the Irish Parliamentary Labour Party. The Anti-War Appeal calls on all Members of the UN and particularly on those voting in the UN Security Council to:

PREVENT THE WAR ON IRAQ
NEGOCIATE A GLOBAL PEACE PLAN FOR THE MIDDLE EAST
PROMOTE FURTHER STEPS OF WORLDWIDE DISARMAMENT
STRENGTHEN UN CAPACITIES FOR CONFLICT PREVENTION AND NON-VIOLENT CONFLICT RESOLUTION

The leader of the Labour Party, Rabbitte, is on record as saying that the war is justified if its backed by the U.N. Security Council. The U.S. is busy bribing and bullying the Security Council to pass the so-called 2nd resolution. So according to the Labour Party if the U.S bribery and coercion succeeds the war is moral and just. At least the Greens McKenna has objected to this dishonesty. But the position of De Rossa and Rabbitte is unprincipled and dishonest. Its the same position as Aherne.

He may have a "vendetta" against Rabbitte, but on this at least he is correct. Labour aren't against war. They are for war with a UN rubber stamp.
