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.

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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6A meeting is to take place on Friday 23rd September for members of the homeless community. For further details please call me on 087 7974622
There are posters/flyers now available if people want to contact us.
Street Seen Press release
26th September
Homeless sleep out outside the Dáil.
Tuesday 27th September from 6pm until Wednesday morning
As the government returns to work after it’s over paid and over extended holiday’s members of the homeless community will be sleeping outside the Dáil to continue their campaign of “No more deaths on our streets”. Organised by the Irish Anti Poverty newspaper Street Seen the sleep out is a signal to the government that campaigners intend to make homelessness a major issue for the next Dáil session.
A spokesperson Mark Grehan said
“While the government were away on their holidays the homeless community continued to suffer from the inaction of our so called political leaders. There have been several deaths amongst the homeless community ultimately resulting in the launch of this campaign. The homeless community has met nothing more than indifference from the government. After years of economic prosperity it is a disturbing direction that this government is taking us. The tax breaks granted to the equestrian community show us that horses are better treated than members of the homeless community”
Mark Grehan continued by saying
“This action is being taken to send a clear signal to the government that we intend to make this issue a major issue for the next Dáil session. For too long this government has ignored this issue. For too long have they left it up to charities to take action where they have failed to deliver. This government can no longer ignore this issue as we will bring it their doorsteps. Failure to act will result in more deaths on our streets, deaths caused by the indifference of our government”

Homeless plan Dáil sleep-out to highlight plight
Members of the homeless community have vowed to sleep outside the Dáil tonight to ensure the Government confronts the problem inside the political chambers.
As ministers return to work in the Oireachtas tomorrow morning after the summer recess, they will be faced with several people sleeping outside the gates of Leinster House in Dublin city centre.
Street Seen, which organised the ‘No more deaths on our streets’ campaign, said the sleep-out was a signal to the Government that campaigners intend to make homelessness a major issue for the next Dáil session.
“While the Government were away on their holidays the homeless community continued to suffer from the inaction of our so-called political leaders.
"There have been several deaths amongst the homeless community ultimately resulting in the launch of this campaign,” Mark Grehan of Street Seen said.
He said the homeless community had met nothing more than indifference from the Government.
Mr Grehan said: “This action is being taken to send a clear signal to the Government that we intend to make this issue a major issue for the next Dáil session.
“For too long this Government has ignored this issue. For too long have they left it up to charities to take action where they have failed to deliver.
"This Government can no longer ignore this issue as we will bring it their doorsteps. Failure to act will result in more deaths on our streets, deaths caused by the indifference of our Government.”
Members of the homeless community, and their supporters, will gather outside the Dáil from 6pm tonight until tomorrow morning.
Over a week ago around 200 people protested in Dublin city centre following the death of three people sleeping rough within the space of a fortnight in the capital
Good lively crowd of 40 homeless people so far settling in for the night outside the dail with about 15 supporters.
It is a well cold night so any spare blankets or sleeping bags would be appreciated.
Only 'politicals' who have arrived showing solidarity so far have been Martin Ferris, Sean Crowe (Sinn Fein) and Eamon Gilmore (Labour) the absence of political solidarity from other politicians and political groups has been commented on by the homeless men and woman at the Dail..
A Film show is just about to begin showing local homeless films supplied by Brendan Dowling.
Find of the night was some rolls of discarded carpet that has helped people keep warm!!
Thanks also to the Simon volunteer outreach team who arrived with Sandwiches and soup..and Damian Moran who came with food from Aungier Street Hostel...
Hope to see more down here as the night progresses. It is vital that we show the arriving TDs in the morning that enough is enough...
The Homeless are Revolting...Come Join them..
