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.

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.

Judges Need Fewer Powers, Not More Thu Nov 20, 2025 19:00 | Will Jones
The Hillsborough Law is well-intentioned, but its effect will be to transfer yet more power from Parliament to unelected judges ? the opposite of what is needed to restore public trust and democratic accountability.

Don't worry about it Foreigners!
You can be brainy too.
* Learn the name of the Irish Attorney General.
* Remind your new found Irish pals as you meet them on holidays eager for a good time : that the "Confirmation" ritual is not just about the brainy extraction of cash from relatives and neighbours - its the Catholic "coming of age".
* Remind everyone that the Irish people didn't really assemble all their abuse victims in every hamlet, village and town to put flowers on the railings.
* Don't forget that there really was no great and unprecendented closing of ranks, rather to the contrary one very brainy man carried the "No!" into the official record, & the establishment being medium to upper intermediate "brainy" has by now learnt that when we want - we can hurt them.
* Remember to remind people in the future that one big word "cunnilingus" wasn't given its first mention in the Irish lower chamber.
* Wear glasses. [Now there's a lot of debate over which type of glasses to wear to really look "brainy", probably bifocals or reading glasses are the way to go, avoid sunglasses just like fake tan, that attempt to seem "brainy" rarely comes off.]
* Grow a beard. & learn how to stroke it. [This really helps regardless of whether your man or a woman, no person with a beard who has learnt how to stroke it can ever really be thought a moron.]
I hope one of the other brainy people will add to the list. Coz its not good enough just thinking yourself brainy - you need peer-support.
They just forgot to count the women.
the usual bullshit, maybe the women apostles were too busy washing and drying
the feet of the men to be counted, or didn't jesus do that himself,
though I am not sure he used his hair, maybe his beard?
A whole lot of nasty beard rash images coming to mind, now,
thus I will stop lest indymedia is accused of blasphemy as well as rampant undiluted
sexism .

Goosey Goosey Gander where shall I wander,
Upstairs, downstairs and in my lady's chamber
There I met an old man who wouldn't say his prayers,
I took him by the left leg and threw him down the stairs.

Dèe saper ogni gran moda,
Dove il diavolo ha la coda,
Cosa è bene e mal cos'è.
Dèe saper le maliziette"

The poisoned chalice has been passed to the next government, & by now you might as well know, your place in the establishment is just about to dissolve 6 wilt like flowers left on court railings.
Take your strong opinion, shocking language, blasphemous references to historical fact with you and get back to being skangers, spides & plebs for Tuesday morning.
But do note - that the period 23/5/06 - 2/6/06 will prove a test of your braininess within the first 18 months of the next government, if you're still interested in that sort of thing.
