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.

let's make posters and put them everywhere in dublin with this transcript quote, with whatever data we have - do it just before RTS
^^^^ Why would we do this?
and were officed in the Phoenix park.
they interrogated me for 48 hours once.
taught me a lot. thank you lads!
you prepared me for the real world.
when the Garda questioning left me alone for a while I recall I tried to get into the "british embassy" box file, there were 8 of them.
but they were another ruse, they were empty.
poor psycho play there.
now that you are called secret service I suppose you are better at that stuff now żno?
Does this Hannahif idiot think she is being funny? Why do we put up with this? Demand to know where this money is going! Secret Service! Don't let them get away with this.
Ireland is the Banana Republic of Europe and it is not a joke!
Eoin, I agree the spending increase re the SS is quite bizarre - what exactly is it;
1) Police - couldn't be as they have their budget that is dept of justice and garda budget
2) Army - again specific budget lines and allocations for this fiscal year.
I have heard variosu theories, namely;
1) Cash payments for garda informers
2) Costs under the witness protection
These two however would be covered already by the Army or Garda
The third theory i heard is that it is used as a sort of unrestricted fund by Dept of Foreign Affairs for overseas stuff. This sounds a bit too 007ish for credibility.
The questions remains who or what is the irish secret service and given that the percieved 'threat' to the state is neligible from republicians, where or what is the million odd euro been spent?
Any ideas - anyone?
The fact is there has been a massive increase in people getting involved in revolutionary organisations in the past year- largely due to the war, and other political issues etc.
The State will want to keep an eye on this as these activists are a threat to their state. There is no conspiracy theory here. But dont be worried most of what they get on organisations is highly unreliable and usually blatently wrong.
And dont be surprised who will help them out in their tasks of getting information on people. In the UK Trade Union bureaucrats gave info on activists. And even here in Ireland it's been alleged that the UCDSU president has given over info to state agents.
Who wears a yellow jump suit with pink puffy buttons,a green cocked hat with purple feathers.
ANSWER The uniform of the Irish secret service
The questions remains who or what is the irish secret service and given that the percieved 'threat' to the state is neligible from republicians, where or what is the million odd euro been spent?
perhaps they are buying arms for a new Irish Real Army?
for 1000€ a pop.
give me a half a dozen, please - wrapped up, .. eh, with .. chips, no vinegar
Obviously, the extra money is for to provide psychotherapists to scalp-massage all the fucking US/Brit/Israeli spies this traitorous government now hosts on our soil.
The government is cutting back on health and other services and has no money to waste on weapons and spooks etc.
Every country has a secret service and if you could get information on their activities by simply looking through some dail papers then we really would be a joke.
By their very nature what they do is secret and so it cant be disclosed. Simple really!
Hilda, given Peter Haddens activities up North I presume the SP in the south gets some of this moolah?
I remember Tommy Sheridan (CWI leader at the time) threatening to name names to the cops after Poll Tax riots.
