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.

Not all your chants and protests and eloquence will have the slightest effect. Ahern has majority support in the Dail for his policy allowing Shannon to be used for the US war effort. Ireland's political and economic interests are best served by this policy. Morality has nothing to do with it. Its time for the anti-war movement to examine its tactics, and strategy, and take a hard look at Ireland's place, economically, politically and culturally in the bid of Anglo-America for world dominance.
Those who refuse to study history ... will never learn from the past ....

That is an amazing story, Not that I recommend firebombing anybody !!!!!. Cant believe I never heard it before. Where you there? what was the media/political/peoples reaction. We have a history of aggressive rebellion and civil disobedience but now we have, um, ah bertie.
ps. sean your subservient cynicism helps to keep others in a stagnant position. what is your motivation, purpose or view? do you have one?(heart or brain) can you not be sufficiently outraged to say something about it?. what would make you stand for something? (beyond sports!!)
no one mentions the speeches (which btw was just explaining to people why they had bothered to head out to the embassy) lasted nearly 1hr 20mins, in that period, the 1500 (lets be realistic, or at least learn to count) was reduced to 1000 as at least 500 people decided that standing around an embassy listening to carreerist "politicians" and so called "socialists" was not worth their time. And can someone please explain to me the value of walking to the British embassy when there was no one at home?
but hey it wasnt all bad, the sinners managed to cover the entire demo with their placards, the swp and sp im sure got a few new recruits and probably made a killing(monetarily) on the suffering of the iraqi people through a paper sale bonanza...
absolutely rediculous is what i would call that demo...
more blockades of the dail i think!
Stop whinging. All this bitchy bickering about this party and that party just annoys the f*** out of me. Demonstrations serve a purpose just as other forms of protest do, sorry if you find them SUCH a bore.
The anti-war movement has clearly failed in its attempt to achieve its objectives. Tactics have to re-addressed and redefined. It is clearly evident that peaceful protest has achieved nothing. The anti war movement leadership should resign and a new leadership should be installed with clear timelines to achieve goals. The fact that Shannon airport has been offered for use to the war machine is a clear indication on how ineffective the anti war protest has been.
Sean - where is your morality? - Its very easy to be cold and dispassionate whilst sitting in the relative safety of your home /office - if these where your people, your family being incinerated and destroyed would you still have the same cold and dislocated view of current events. bollocks to economics - I would rather be penniless than have innocent blood on my hands, a view that I hope my young children will also carry in life
Someone once said... all it takes for evil to prosper is that good men do nothing. Any action you as an individual take which you honestly believe to be the right thing to do, is worth doing. There are a lot of forces out there persuading you to just watch the tv, or the football, or the lotto, or whatever. Don't wait for someone else to act, if they act it will be on their beliefs, not yours. Ireland is sinking fast, perhaps it is too late for this generation?
I have come across this idea elsewhere on indymedia (Portuguese site)... millions of people taking to the streets for a day of protest marching still barely lasts as news on the telly on the following day... the mass media is owned and run by mass murder-supporters and news is featured by puppet brained reporters... massive organisational effort coupled with emotive timing are needed to make any protest happen at all... SO HERE IS A SIMPLE SOLUTION TO GET PAST THE DEADLOCK OF MEDIA CONTROL AND GET THE MESSAGE OUT TO SHOW THE WORLD WITH A SHORT SHARP SHOCK ...
to get together a small band of smart and concise co conspiritors and make a simple plan of action... to target a national media TV and/or radio station/regional office... and stage a take over for a few hours or indeed for many days and nights... hard to know how long such a move might last.. but even 5 minutes would get a lot of well researched truth out and about on the air before being closed down... and a closed down TV station is sensational news and amazing embarrassment for Big Brother Inc.
this idea is non violent direct action
to reclaim the media is not too far removed from a Reclaim the Streets but has far more wide spread effect
this is how the portuguese revolution started on 25 of April 1974 at 3 o'clock in the morning - by taking over the media to get rid of the fascist regime of Marcelo Caetano... by playing forbidden songs on the radio so - people would know that the revolution was truly under way...
History in the making...

A good point. Tactics need to be changed. Democrqcy does not exist in this country. The Dail needs to be ignored. It should have no legal binding upon the citizens of this country as it does not represent us. Time to forget non violent direct action. It's getting us nowhere. Those FF/PD ministers who voted didn't vote the way the Irish people wished. They voted on behalf of themselves and maybe some corporate interests. They should therefore be held personally accountable for their actions. Following on from this, if there is another anti war march then this march should go to Aherns house up in drumcondra and protest there. The time for violent mass civil disobedience has arrived.
You're dead right. The time for revolution is very much upon us and the governement have no interests beyond their own continued greed and power. We should burn Bertie's house, see how he likes it. Hows that for refuelling Ahern ye gobsh*te.
