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.

What Happened When Extinction Rebellion Had a Taste of its Own Medicine Fri Nov 21, 2025 17:00 | Anonymous
Read what happened when an Extinction Rebellion meeting was disrupted by a protester. Seems they can give it out but have no intention of putting up with it themselves.

Are the Grooming Gangs a Muslim Phenomenon? Fri Nov 21, 2025 15:00 | Mark Durie
First they were 'Asian' grooming gangs, then 'Pakistani'. But the most important thing to grasp is that almost all of them ? 87% of convictions ? are Muslim, says Mark Durie. This must not be covered up.

The Covid Inquiry Has Failed to Engage With the Evidence Fri Nov 21, 2025 11:00 | Dr Carl Heneghan and Dr Tom Jefferson

If the BBC's Standards Committee, which is reviewing the corporation's coverage of climate change, wants a good example of bias, it should take a look at its report of recent floods in Pakistan, says Paul Homewood.

What matters here is that there is five activists on trial soon for trying to stop Genocide. Literally [sic] happening via Shannon Airport with the Governments knowledge!
Forget the bitchin, the name confusion and look at the issues here. These people have been awaiting trial for nearly three years.
THATS THREE YEARS OF THEIR LIVES!
Who cares what they call themselves. Whether they dress in sackcloth or silk has no relevance. their action says it all. If more people defended our neutrality in this way then all that crap at Shannon would have stopped by now!
Who's country is it after all?
I understand that only three of the five are actually Catholics!!!
It's so confusing.
The Catholic Worker was started in 1933 by Dorthy Day and Peter Maurin setting up houses of hospitality for the homeless, non-violently resisting war, living in community. About 200 houses exist throughout the US. Some in Germany, Britain, Holland, Australia, Canada too.
The Ploughshares Movement was initiated on Sept. 8th 1980 by the Berrigan brothers, Phil and Dan, alongside other activists who disarmed Mark 12-A nuclear missile cones in an attempt to enflesh the prohecy of Isaiah and Micah, 'to beat swords into ploughshares and study war no more'.
Many Ploughshares actions over the past 25 years (about 80) have involved people connected to the Catholic Worker Movement.
For more information on the Ploughshares movement go to
www.plowsharesactions.org
For more information on Dublin Catholic Worker go to www.geocities.com/dublincatholicworker
All five activists on trial, the Pitstop Ploughshares, are connected to the Catholic Worker Movement.
Sometimes they are Catholic Worker sometimes Ploghshares - why?
I'd encourage all to go along, its a big thing whether you agree with the tactic or not that 5 people are goin to face the state like this
Of course Joe meant to say Thursday 6th Oct.
Solidarity Benefit for the CW5

Francis st
(5 euro or 3 un/low waged)
The Catholic Worker 5 are five anti-war activists who disarmed a US warplane in Shannon that was on its way to the war in Iraq. They will be on trial for this act on October 24th. In solidarity the 1st of May branch of the Workers Solidarity Movement are holding a fundraiser to help pay for the costs incurred by these activists due to this action.

DJs etc
Apologies, me wires were crossed!
Thanks Gregor.
Thats great so there will be two nights, a pub quiz and a music night? That makes the story twice as good as it initially was!
It's not going to be a quiz, it'll be a night of music and chat along the lines of the 'Anarchy Nite Cafe' held during the summer, kicking off about 8:30/9:00pm, the purpose being to show both financial and moral solidarity with the Pitstop Ploughshare defendants as they face into their re-trial.
It's going to be a pub quiz. Time not verified but I think around 8.30/9pm. I understand that a flyer is been done up so will be here in due course. Thanks to the WSM for their ongoing solidarity as we journey back through the Four Courts.
Other events prior to the Pitstop Ploughshares retrial in Dublin's Four Courts from Oct. 24th can be followed at the link below.
Could someone please explain why this WSM branch is called the 1st of May branch? I understand the symbolism of may day and the important and indeed vital contribution of anarchists to the day, but I dont understand the desire to call a branch after a day. It would be like a Labour party brach calling itself 1st of April branch because of the contribution that the Irish labour party has made to fools in Ireland.
What time is the benifit and waht type?
