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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Hi!
Supporters of this event, from the Kilmainham area of Dublin, have kindly organised and donated 40th anniversary commemorative medals for those brave enough to seek sponsorship and earn it on the day - don't know if the medals are waterproof, but they're surely 'proof' of the dedication of all involved!
More re same at the 'Related Link' , below.
Thanks,
Sharon.
Commemorative medals will be presented to the Cabhair swimmers on Christmas Day next, to mark the 40th anniversary of the event.
Hi!
There has been a fantastic response to this annual event from people in the area and the so-far confirmed four (sponsored) swimmers have been dining out for the last two weeks on the strength of their up-coming derring-do to the extent, I think, that those attending will be expecting the four lads to walk on the water rather than swim in it!
The usual 'goodies' are being donated and stored and Santa has promised to visit - it's good to go, and we're all looking forward to meeting up with old friends, and making new ones.
If you're around that part of Dublin on Christmas Day, between 11am and 1pm, drop by and say hello, pull a cracker, have a mince pie and a sup of 'lemonade' - you'll be welcome!
Thanks,
Sharon.
1,000 printed items of a republican nature have been collated into 'packs' and distributed pub-to-pub and door-to-door in the 'Swim' area.
Hi!
Done and dusted, until the 41st in '17!
We had decent enough weather - mild, overcast and windy - a fairly good crowd and six swimmers, each of whom earned their keep, with hardly any hesitation! The usual 'goodies' were available, the Irish tricolour flew proudly from the Naas Road end of the swim site, the music system blared out some good stuff and we were surveilled electronically more so than physically.
The organisers can be proud of the work they put in and the six lads were proud to receive their '40th Swim Anniversary' medals : all-in-all, a job very well done!
A few words and pics can be seen at the 'Related Link' , below.
Thanks!
Sharon.
The six Cabhair swimmers and their little extra bonus!
