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. The Saker >>

Elaine Boyle, socialist, feminist, revolutionary, writer, and poet from Drimnagh, sadly and suddenly passed away last week.
Elaine Boyle, socialist, feminist, revolutionary, writer, and poet from Drimnagh, sadly and suddenly passed away last week. Sadly mourning the passing away of London born Drimnagh woman, Elaine Boyle, (1959 – 2010). Elaine passed away on Tuesday 4th May in the Matter Hospital, Dublin. On Sat May 1st, 2010, Elaine joined the workers march in Dublin. She was arrested by police, and later brought to the Matter Hospital in an ambulance. When the ambulance arrived at the hospital, she escaped and ran off. However, later that night, she was found at the foot of a wall, severly injured. When she arrived at the hospital, she was declared brain-dead. Her loving daughter Nora Boyle was at her side on Tuesday when her heart stopped beating.
Elaine was a compassionate and strong woman, a fierce advocate for social change. She became a vegetarian at the age of 14. She was a pioneer single mother in the late seventies, when she had Nora alone, aged 17, fighting to keep her daughter and mother her according to her principles and beliefs. She was an ardent anti-war campaigner, with strong sympathy for the palestinian people, on whose behalf she worked tirelessly. She was an ardent feminist, socialist, anti-racist and poet, a woman of many talents. She was a member of the Irish Communist Party (Páirtí Cumannach na hÉireann). She was a victim of mistreatment by Mental Health Services for 30 years, misdiagnosed, used to test medication, and deliberately hooked on medication, discrinated against and disabled.
She is currently laid out in Flanagans Funeral Parlour, Angier St. (next door to the bones of St. Valentine!), in an organic willow basket. The willow is from Donegal. She will remain there until Monday morning (10th May). There will be a procession at 11 am to the Unitarian Church, St. Stephens Green, where a service will be held at 11:30 am. All are welcome, green or red flags or left flags are requested. her flag the Starry Plough, will be draped over her coffin.

there is going to be an inquest.
RIP
My deepest condolences to her family and friends.
She was a Truth Warrior.
Sorry to hear of the loss of such a woman of conscience, bless her.
RIP comrade Elaine Boyle

Elaine was a wonderful person - always full of energy and purpose.
She died while campaigning against injustice and corporate greed. In other words, she died as she lived.
The world has lost a little of its colour today.
The importance of international solidarity is greater now than ever, as governments fall over themselves to wring every possible penny from the pocket of the working man, for the enrichment of the very worst people in our society. It is difficult to believe that courage is still a requirement for those wishing to march through Dublin city - that they should be at risk from the police in Ireland in 2010 is an outrage.
My heart breaks for the family of poor Elaine Boyle, a strong and committed woman whose passionate concern for the rights of others led her to be arrested, thereby setting in motion a chain of events leading to her tragic death. No doubt the gardai will investigate themselves thoroughly and conclude that none of their members was in any way at fault.
A sad end to a proud and united workers' march for rights.

Elaine was not arrested,she entered Pearse St. Garda of her own volition on saturday evening, barefoot.
I recieved the information by phone and made an assumption based on the fact that she was taken from the police station in an ambulance.
I assumed that there was a polical arrest involved.
The Service yesterday was a fitting tribute to Elaine. On the cortege were Palestinian and Cuban flags.
Dear Friends,
Yesterday Elaine Boyle was given a big send off. As was her wish a humanist ceremony was held in the Uniterian Church in Stephens Green. The church seats around 400 people and many people were forced to stand outside. Her Funeral cortege was led by a young kid appropiately named Fionn who symbolically carried a wooden sword, he was accompanied by his sister Rowan. A large number of flags were carried behind the cortege including The Irish Starry Plough and Palestinian and Cuban flags to represent some of the things that she was interested and involved in. A fine poem that was written in Elaine's honour was recited by Robert McElroy the Tara Campaigner, and her Brother Michael spoke movingly about his sister. It was a great show of respect for Elaine and it was what she richly deserved.
our deepest sympathy to elaines family. her tragic and untimely loss has left a void in our lives that it will take a long time to fill if ever.a great loss.we mourn her untimely passing.rest in peace comrade.
Why do people have to sensationalise things?
The Guards and the Health Services, on this particular night did nothing wrong?
Please check your facts before posting onto a public forum - such as the web. . . .
OK they may have failed her miserably, all her life, but there's no question of she being dragged to Pearse St and then taken to hospital - South Africa Style. . .
Don't jump from the phone / idle chat to publc media so wrecklessly - this has cost life in the past . . .
