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. The Saker >>

MORE INFORMATION ON KAREN CONAGHAN
"I was born in Letterkenny, although my dad is from Mountcharles and my mum is from Dunkineely. I came to the States when I was about one years old, and have been back to Donegal almost every summer of my life, and sometimes twice a year. My entire extended family lives in Donegal, except for one aunt and uncle in Philadelphia, and a cousin in Dublin.
I think being an Irish-American is a really unique identity. There are times when you don't feel Irish enough for the Irish, and not American enough for the Americans. But, I think it's wonderful to be able to see things on a bigger, global scale. Many Americans are extremely sheltered, and it's not their fault. If you think about it, the United States is, in effect, an island nation with a friendly neighbor to the north and a friendly neighbor to the south. The rest of the world is not emphasized when you are growing up in America. All you know is what you're taught, which is basically, America is the best country in the world. That's the mantra. Although, we're never given any reason why that is so, except for "America is free. You can do things here that you can't do anywhere else". So, it's not really Americans' fault that they have no idea what's going on overseas. It might as well be another planet to some of them. Especially since 9/11....there's this whole new "American" identity. Before 9/11, really nobody was calling themselves "American", even those who were born, raised, and have been in America for generations. They were Italian, or Irish, or Greek, or what have you. Now, they're American. That tragedy brought about this whole new identity that really didn't exist in the way it does today. Maybe it made them realize they actually love their country. Or maybe they just wanted to belong to this group of people who were being sympathized for around the world. I don't really know.
I think the Irish-American connection, especially where I come from in Philadelphia, is great. My family is extremely active in every Irish community event in the city, and it's amazing how involved people are, and how much non-Irish people appreciate the Irish culture. Americans can be very curious to other cultures, depending. But, the Irish culture is definitely one that Americans have an affinity for. They see it as fun and musical and just a very rich identity. I can't speak about how the Irish view Americans, I've had positive and negative reactions to my American accent while I've been in Ireland, but that is normal, I think. The same thing happens in the States to foreigners."

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4Welcome back to Ireland, Karen and . It looks as if it's going to be a great weekend in dear old Donegal.
Ciaron, Nuin and friends from the Pitstop Ploughshares will be worth meeting. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it, much as I would have wished to be there.
Don't worry Karen, we all love Americans, but especially Americans against war. Won't it be really lovely when the whole global village settles down to understanding our brotherhood and sisterhood instead of searching for differences to blow one another up with.
Enjoy your time here and please keep up the great, so worthwhile struggle for love and justice.
Live in fantasy land. There will be no global fucking village in this century, next century or even 1000 years from now. Right now, we need to have weapons and we need to enforce the will of the UN (whether it wants to or not).
Jasus,, you are one sad bastard!
Just a clarification - Ciaron and Nuin were with us 2 weeks ago. Different meet this week.
All welcome to come up and camp.
We'll be organising for BERTIE and CO. coming to SLIGO - INFO FROM
