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.

Maybe the possibility of getting a job is attracting immigrants, but your benefits argument is plain dumb. Who would travel half the way around the world to live on 19 euros a week in this kip.
For all those who don't get sarcasm, the point of my earlier post was that in the 80's Dublin was a horrible kip full of drug addicts and crime and that everyone who had half a chance to get out did. Seeing as there were no immigrants at the time, this is pretty strong evidence that there is no relationship between immigration and these types of social problems. Indeed it would take a fanatical ideologue to think that our current crime problem can be attributed to immigrants. Are all those gangs of drunken youths beating each other up on our streets putting on Irish accents maybe?

And remember the ones that the Gardai batonned back onto the Aeroflot flight? Those were some of the Kurds that we've just had to kill to liberate. That was while the evil dictator Hussein was in power doing the horrific gassing that we all decry now.
Still and all, at least we can say that Ireland did its bit during the Vietnamese boat-people crisis and took all of 5 families. Amazing what a civilised Christian nation full of moral rectitude can do isn't it?
All this talk of the 1980s brings me back. One thing that strikes me--we weren't flooded with asylum seekers back then. Mmm... I wonder why. If there were genuine asylum sskers around back then how come they didn't try to get into a country with high unemployment ? And how come now they're appearing out of everywhere ? Might it be that they're more interested in benefits than asylum--a true asylum seeker will be grateful for safety anywhere, even if it's a country in recession.
It shows a person has great courage in their convictions when they hide behind a pseudo name and sprout racist idiocy.
I also remenber Dublin in the 80's. I remember the recession then and i also remember the glue sniffers. Now, although were in a different century we are entering (if not in) a recession and although the glue sniffers are gone there are other junkies wandering around.
It is not a race issue its an economic one and always has been. The working class will have the greater percentage in prison no matter what colour or creed they are. The result of systematic oppression extended over centuries of economic prosperity for the few.
Badman, I remember those days but I'm not joking! It was sunnier in Dublin then and life was more fun!
Hey you other two, who are supposed to me. We should get together, we seem to have a lot in common. Are any of you fine looking women?
I remember the 1980's before we had the dreadful scourge of immigration. Dublin was a lovely city, there wasn't a black face to be seen. All the little children used to dance and sing in the streets and crime and drugs were completely unknown. We also all had jobs before the immigrants came and took them all - and they were good jobs mind, not the crap ones we have now, we were well paid artists, philosophers and sports professionals. The weather used to be nice too, it was sunny nearly every day.
Barney-Rob-Caspian is the same person. Some idiot Haider fan (previous-postings revealed this)who is trying to counter so-nazi-called Umvoelkerung- a fear of 'race dilution'!!!!
A fan of inbreeding then?
Deport barnbobcaspa!!!
Caspian you are a freak. Go back to your inbred island.
Hey Lumpenhead. Your pathetic sixties student language shows where you are coming from! Rumanians get arrested because they are thieving bastards who spend their days leeching off any state that will have them and picking pockets and stealing purses. Why is multiculturism rejected in every country that these illegals originate from? Multiculturism doesn't seem to be working too well in Nigeria, does it? Is that why so many Nigerians head for Dublin? Who invited them here?
Enforced multiculturism will destroy Ireland as is already happening in England.
What the hell are veiled up Muslim women doing wandering the streets of Tralee, for Christ's sake? Tralee of all places!
Nip it in the bud. Stop it now. Dublin doesn't have to become another Birmingham.
Hi barneyrob,
a couple of small points on your post:
1. In democracies people don't have to leave the country even if the democracy doesn't behave the way they want
2. Your use of the term "multi-culti" suggests that your reading matter originates in the land of auslander. Try to disguise the source of your "thinking" better the next time.
3. The imprisonment of minorities reflects institutionalised and lumpenfascist racism: government ministers egging on their speeding Gardai drivers don't get arrested, but "Romanian" "gypsies" do.
4. Better leave Cork before it's too late.
Out of total proportion to their numbers in the general population?
No matter how you mess with the figures it's true that black people in those countries are responsible for more crime than thier white fellow citizens.
What's up with them?
most irsh people dont want blacks here.
Do you believe in democracy?
If you want to live in a multi-culti society shag off to brazil
