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.

Jump To Comment: 6 5 4 3 2 1According to Goldhawk in the current issue of Phoenix magazine, there were two hercules being used out of shannon for some time as ground reconnaisance to locate any places on the ground that could be used by terrorists to down one of their aircraft. funny enough this resulted in several trees being removed from the surrounding environs as they were regarded as a security problem. (why?..Someone coud hide in them and fire a rocket Duh!)
well anyway, I know it sounds like a bit of a laugh but the story is worth a read, and whatever the reasons, US planes functioning as spy planes in this country...thats no laughing matter.
A few have now come available for decommissioning.
Can be used outside of fence.
Conor and I were up there a while ago.
The first herc has been joined by a second one.
They are at the south west end of the terminal in a fenced off area.
(a recent enough tactic - surely Rummy's plane will be parked in the same spot.)
inside the movable fence we can see the planes, airport police vans, a Garda van and armed Gardai.
In fact we saw armed gardai very close up when we were planespotting.
We had a short discussion with them.
We assured them that we were not carrying spuds. We asked them if they were aware of the contents of some of the aircraft. They said they were not aware. So we told them that some of the 747s would typically carry 28 cruise missiles.
We also told them that -for their own information - they should read the transcript of Dubsky's trial where Dr. Hassan Rubaie testifies about the effects of DU on children.
I asked a third Garda if he knew which Gardai were informed of the contents. It has come to our attention that the Gardai are informed of the contents (but do not inspect them), If this means that Inspector Kennedy was aware of the contents of the planes, then he has a case to answer for perjury as he stated the opposite before Judge Mangan on Dec 18th last.
Anyway, the Hercs.
The Hercs have got refuelling pods on the wings (further out from the engines) as well as the extra fuel tanks (between engines 1 and 2 and engines 3 and 4)
Due to the failing light we couldn't get reg numbers. There was no obvious activity at the planes besides the security. We decided to head home and check in on them in the morning.
We were followed back to Shannon town by the two armed Gardai.
Anyone else want to come down for a look?
You can get a 2 for 1 package tour if you come to Ennis for the court appearances of Mary Kelly and the Catholic Workers on Friday, and go planespotting with us afterwards...
I was passing the airport on Tuesday and saw a gray Army airplane land at around 1200 or so. Does anyone know what kind of airplane it was and did anyone get any pictures? I drove to the lot and could clearly see U.S. Army but I certainly didn't recognize the type.
the mammy harney will get you!
oh she will. the mammy harney sures shes there since nineteen sixteen
with a barrow and a pear and a napple as well
oh the mammy harney could kill a hundred men with one blow.
According to later biographers indeed near haliographers of the O'Brien the codex page 28 was decyphered to reveal the fifth temporal slip of mid twentieth century Irish literature. It is though worthy of mention that on editorial insistence (probably prudent) mention of the Mammy Harney pages of the Codex were excised from the illuminatus trilogy of R.A. Wilson. But who gave a shit anyway, the Harney entity or ár-ni-h'ea! as it properly had been in Goidelic and early Irish was recognised in occult bestiaries some of which found their way in careful transcription to the libraries of Bagdad, where thanks to foresight....
Others though tend to disagree.
There was more than one Mammy Harney they say.
They point to the similarities in MammyHarney statues throughout the Indian Ocean region and the decidedly MammyHarney look of the fourteenth Easter Island statue (facing Chile).
I am an anarchist of good faith, therefore can not impose my MammyHarney beliefs on anyone else.
but she scares me.all the same.
same bullet proof glass
same helicopter
but only in white.
(He's coming to Madrid this weekend).
Joe, well done with that Hercules!
we'll let the global network know, we'll give you a bell when it touches down at the next place.
(if you could tag it up with a flourescent patch so we can recognise it more easily that would be really helpful).
Meanwhile on the other side of reality and Irish neutrality, the Mammy Harney has just finished her press conference. She too is descended from a prostitute. Just like you.
Oh and rapists too., and murderers.
Dont let anyone let you think all your michrocondrial DNA got there through loving hugs and sacred marriage vows.
Tell the Mammy Harney will ye?
