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.

Tá an scéal céanna amhlaidh in achan eagraíocht stáit a bhíonn ag plé leis an Ghaeilge.
Amharc, mar shampla, Údarás na Gaeltachta, a mbíonn cruinnithe rúnda acu nach bhfuil cead acu fuascailt caidé mar a chaitheann daoine a vóta ar rúin chonspóideacha.
Ní tharlaíonn sin i roinn ar bith eile den stát.
Cuirimse an locht ar na meáin Ghaeilge.
Ní amháin na páipéir Ghaeilge.
Cad chuige nach ndéantar craoladh ar chruinnithe an Údaráis mar a bhíonn ag an Oireachtas, Seanad agus Dáil Éireann?
Ansin bheadh a fhios ag daoine caidé a bhí ar bun ag na daoine ar vótáil siad dóibh.
Níl oscailteacht ar bith i gceist leis na heagraíochta stáit seo ar chor ar bith.
Udaras takes our tax money to give to businesses that create English-speaking call-centre jobs in the Gaeltacht, so that the workers can speak Irish when they are not speaking English...
I'm sure there's a logic somewhere in all that, but perhaps not at my expense.
about the glossary....
then you can read back over the pure gaelic piece and learn more bits of it....
What a beautiful, special language we have.It's one of our greatest treasures.
And since the EU recognised it , it is incumbent on all of us to use it more, play with it ,etc etc
Wealthy people come from all over the World to 'dip their toes' in our culture.
When Intel and Microsoft and the rest are all gone, it may be the only resource we have .

Tá ceist curtha sa Dáil faoin scannal seo ag Aengus Ó Snodaigh ar an Aire Éamon Ó Cuív. Níl a fhios agam an bhfuil freagra tugtha aige go fóill.
Aontaím go hiomlán le Daithí Lacha faoin rúndacht a bhaineann le hobair Údarás na Gaeltachta, agus an gá leis an obair sin a oscailt suas. Aontaím freisin le Puzzled gur beag an mhaith a dhéanann deontais an Údaráis don teanga go minic. (Agus, tar éis an rud a tharla le Contac 4 le seachtain anuas, is léir nach féidir brath ar na comhlachtaí seo ar chor ar bith.)
Ach bíonn na hargóintí seo le cloisteáil anois is arís. Tá a fhios ag daoine go bhfuil na rudaí seo ag tarlú, agus uaireanta pléitear iad sna meáin Ghaeilge. Admhaím nach bpléitear iad minic go leor, ach bíonn plé éigin orthu. An cheist seo faoi bhord Fhoras na Gaeilge, áfach, tá iarracht mhór ar siúl chun an scéal ar fad a cheilt. Níl iriseoirí na Gaeilge á fhiosrú. Níl nuachtáin na Gaeilge ag cur litreacha i gcló faoi. Tá na deontais mar laincis orthu, is cosúil. Déarfainn gurb é Indymedia an t-aon áit ar domhan atá ag plé na ceiste seo.
Tá an ceart ar fad ag Éamo faoi thábhacht na teanga, ar ndóigh. Chun a bheith cinnte go mbeidh sí beo, caithfear leabhair agus irisí i nGaeilge a bheith ar fáil don phobal. Ach mura gcuirimid stop leis an scannal seo, beidh cumhacht ag foilsitheoir Gaeilge amháin foilsitheoirí Gaeilge eile a ionsaí. Chonaiceamar cad a rinne an Foras do Comhar: ná ligimis dá leithéid tarlú arís.
FOCLÓIR
Ceilt - hiding. Fiosrú - investigation. Laincis - chain. Rúndacht - secrecy.
Is mór an trua nach bhfuil ceisteanna mar seo pléite sna nuachtáin Ghaeilge nó ar TG4 féin, ach smaoinigh mar seo air.
Tá na meáin uilig, a bheag na a mhór, ceannaithe ag na húdaráis.
I bhfocail eile tá siad uilig ag brath ar na móreagraíochtaí Gaeilge do fhógraíocht agus maoiniú. Deir siad nach dtiocfadh leo mairstin gan sin.
Amharc an rud a bhí ag titim amach le Lá Nua an mhí seo caite.
Ní ag déanamh leithscéil do na meáin atá mé, mar creidim go bhfuil neamart iontach á dhéanamh nuair nach gclúdaíonn siad cruinnithe Bhord an Údaráis.
Ach sin mar atá siad agus níl Lá Nua nó Foinse, nó seomra nuachta TG4 ag dul an nós sin a bhriseadh.
Bhí an t-am ann agus bhí suíomh idirlín www.craiceailte.com ag déanamh jab a bhí go hiontach ag plé rudaí mar seo ach níl rud ar bith ag tarlú leis le dhá bhliain ar a laghad, agus ní fheicim comharba ar bith ag seasamh suas le áit craiceáilte a ghlacadh.
Mar sin de, coinnigh ort ag scríobh altanna mar seo ar indymedia, mar is cosúil gur seo an t-aon dóigh le dearcadh mar seo a chur trasna ar chor ar bith.

Nach bhfuil sé faoi iniúcóirí an Ard-chuntasóra Stáit agus faoi bhaill an choiste Dála cuí ceisteanna a chur.
Is dóigh go bhfuil nósanna imeachta ann cheana faoi mar a phléann baill de aon choiste lena "leasanna seachtracha" fhéin
