offsite link 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.

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.

offsite link 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

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.

Campaign for a new party launched

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Friday May 27, 2005 00:18author by Campaigner Report this post to the editors

Independent TD Seamus Healy and Dublin City Anti Bin Tax Cllr. Joan Collins today announced plans by a number of independent left organisations to campaign for a new left-wing political party, in response to Labour's expected weekend decision to enter a pre-election alliance with Fine Gael.

The Tipperary South TD stated that various left-wing groups and individuals have held talks in the last 12 months about such a project. "All these groups and individuals are based in the workers' and trade union movement", he said.

"They have a strong track record of campaigning on community and trade union issues such as the bin tax, tax equity, poverty, inadequate health services, opposition to privatisation, anti-war activity, opposition to racism and participation in social forums for global justice."

Mr Healy, along with Cllr. Collins, Dermot Connolly of the CWAG and Colm Breathnach of the ISN, announced their plans at a press conference in Dublin today. In a statement yesterday they condemned what they said was "the Labour preparation for yet another coalition" and called for "urgent discussion on the need for a new Independent party of the left". This call has also been backed by Des Derwin, vice-president of the Dublin Council of Trade Unions and leading left activist in SIPTU.

They said discussions about a possible "regroupment" on the left had included Mr Healy's own organisation, the South Tipperary Workers' and Unemployed Action Group; the Dublin-based Community and Workers' Action Group; the Irish Socialist Network; the supporters of Red Banner magazine; and a number of individual activists and independent socialists. All these groups and individuals have a record of grasssroots campaigning and a commitment to open and democratic organisation.

The discussions have centred on the creation of an independent left regroupment free of careerism and free of subordination to conservative parties such as Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael. The ultimate objective would be creation of a popular movement led by a new political party to represent and organise working people. The discussions were given urgency by the refusal of the Labour Party to lead an alliance of the left and its undivided commitment to coalition.

Mr Healy said these groups were committed to linking up campaigns in different parts of the country on issues such as poverty, exploitation and right-wing policies. Through this and other activities they will advance the need for an independent political party of the left. "There is no proposal at this time to declare the formation of a new party, to set up a new left wing group or to provide an umbrella for existing groups. Participating groups will continue to run candidates in elections as heretofore. We would welcome expressions of interest from groups or individuals with a track record of involvement in popular campaigns," Mr Healy said.
