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.

1. Faux naivety
2. Obsession with anarchists
3. Saying: "I'm not a member of any party"
Ipsiphi- thery're not bad! Just useless!
now Irish anarchists are a bad bunch.
but the anarchists of say the Vatican ooo.
eeeer. ahem. anyway.
keep it with pals.
Yesterday extra official eviction notice of the Camp infront of the seat of Government which isn't a seat of Government in Barcelona.
so we are leaving.
oh yes. we are dissolving into the winds of political commentary and history.
the only peace camp on a governments doorstop in history is just going to dissappear and be completely forgotten about.
our previous addresses have demonstrated a certain weird habit of arriving on the governemnts doorstop though, how many government doorsteps are there?
these questions and others will be answered today on the streets of Barcelona.
at 17h00 a Reclaim the Streets party at Placa Paisos Catalans.
at 18h00 a "Aznar RESIGN NO WAR" march at Placa Espana.
Q. what is an "extra official eviction" about then?
A. well this is when really big, I mean really big, soldier types come in suits and mumble at a few people. I was one. mumble mumble. I offered this man some of my "learn English" that is "apprendre anglès" dominoes.
really quite fun. you get a word and a prefix or suffix. You match them with other words. Very educational.
I told him that since i was an anarchist i couldn't really give him any answer he was looking for. He shrugged and said "esta bé" ("thats ok") he is used to how it goes.
as the anarchist standing next to me mused, at times it is very difficult to be an anarchist. Oh yes. the talking, loads of talking, the assemblies, oh ooodles of them, and the decision making, sure we looked at the 80year old anarchist munching his free fruit and wondered had he been here since the first assembly.
ageing is the anarchy.
anyway. we do our thing slowly.
and we dont deserve the vilification.
so enough of this "anarchists are a bad lot"
we are not, we just have a difficult time commuinicating our concensus when we dont yet have one.
"the answer is in the assembly so to speak".
they are big assemblies.
go read the big bad anarchists of Ireland and Errons words at
http://flag.blackened.net/revolt/wsm.html
The WSM is an interesting study in self-delusion. It's members endlessly slag off virtually every organisation (except the Catholic Workers!!) and then whine when they're not applauded at every turn. I'm not a member of an organisation myself (other than campaigning groups) so maybe I don't understand the dynamics as well as I should. But, it is interesting that the WSM (with eight members or, maybe, twelve according torecent posting) finds that the best way to promote themselves is to attack everybody else as 'trots' etc. I'm not a 'trot' (whatever that is) but, having read indymedia for some time, I know that that's the customary dismissal of people who don't agree with them. Isn't it time that they grew up?
I notice that Chekov is putting it up to the Trots to do something at Shannon on Saturday. Funny that, I thought we were all going to Shannon! Is this the WSM way of supporting demos at Shannon? More to the point, what exactly did you do at the last Shannon demo, Chekov? You know, the one with miserable turnout that you didn't even try to mobilise for because you "hadn't time" and wanted "to prioritise other onging work". Remember when Shannon was considered the number one priority? Fucking idiots.
All the anarchists won't be able to take part cos they either have to work, go to college or THEY WEREN'T GIVEN ENOUGH NOTICE!!!!!!
Ah go back to sleep the lot of ye if all ye can do is post snooze on the net!
or else agents provacateur seeking to foment dispute by inciting sectarian argument.
I look forward to the condemnation of these sectarian attacks on anarchists by our good friends and non-sectarians in the SP, SWP etc. because this sort of thing only splits the movement. It is important that the major Trotskyist parties demonstrate solidarity with their anarchist comrades when this sort of attack occurs.
Interesting that those starting the thread were unwilling to let it die after they got their arses kicked. Maybe they like that?
It's all about action lads, seems like a new line for yourselves, can't wait to see the action on Saturday.
