offsite link 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.

offsite link 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.

offsite link 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

offsite link 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 delusional EU believes it can wield carbon tariffs as weapons. But its grandiloquent Net Zero scheme is destined to collapse under the weight of the bloc's utter economic irrelevance, says Tilak Doshi.

Globalise Resistance fight the WTO on Sept 13th

category dublin | anti-capitalism | opinion/analysis author Monday September 01, 2003 16:23author by anonymista - no organisation - keep it simpleauthor email somewhere at cyberspace dot orgauthor address 1 the M50, the B L A N C H, stuck in the traffic jam today from all the kiddies going back to school (or "back 2 skool")author phone six six six, sixty nine, sixty nine Report this post to the editors

This is a genuine query... would appreciate a response from a GR rep

Finished cycling around town today, was in ten minds about various potential gifts for the ball n chain.

On the rounds was met with a freshly pasted batch of GR posters, in the usual spots: lamp posts, temple bar walls, electricity boxes, etc. Announcing: "Fight the WTO, from Seattle to Sydney, From Genoa to Geneva" and some other stuff. Meeting at the Central Bank at 3pm on Dame Street, on Sept 13th. Presumably to coincide with the Cancun conference.

Now. I would really hope that this doesnt turn into the usual Indymedia "GR are the SWP" thread, yes we all know that already. Yes we know some people from GR arent very nice, they are a front, they're not democratic, etc. But we've been down this road before, so lets see if we can have something new.

What I'm curious about is this. The poster is very much speaking the language of rebellion, of militant resistance, "Fight the WTO".

But I would like to know what the GR action is going to involve. Is it going to be a table with a petition and some leaflets? Is it going to be a few banners and newspapers?

Or is it actually going to be a demonstration or direct action, against people in Ireland who are supporters of discriminatory capitalism, or the WTO?

Just that I vaguely remember showing up briefly at an anti WTO thing on O'Connell Bridge before, I think it was the one year anniversary of the Seattle demo. It had been organised by GR. It was a bit of a let down. It wasnt anything much apart from an information stall.

So I am just interested what form this action against the WTO this year will take.

~GR is organising a protest at 1.30pm at the central bank on sept 13th that will be held in solidarity with the protests that will take place in mexico against the WTO trade summitt. The EU and USA will push their agenda of trade liberalisation-the removal of all barriers to the flow of capital and trade of goods..barriers include a public health service, transport system, education system, environmental laws, laws to protect workers and the list goes on...GR are organising a football match as a way of highlighting the inequalities that exist in the world and will then have some speakers and after that another action (if the numbers turn up).

It's interesting how the RCP-types and anarchists in the Bay Area (San Francisco) seem to be able to socialise with each other. Also in LA an RCP "drum circle" was reported to have shielded black-bloc @s that were being intimidated by the police during anti-war protests. Warms the cockles of the heart!

The WTO has reached an agreement to provide inexpensive drugs to poorer African nations to combat diseases such as AIDs.

The WTO provides a forum where co-operative agreements such as this can be made.

Sinister, isn't it. The Illuminati must be destroyed etc.

Just curious about the game of football

Are you going to, as it were, "reclaim the street" in front of the Central Bank for the game of football?

That's a fairly serious direct action for GR (no offence or anything), but it would be amazing if you did it.

There's not much space to play soccer in the pedestrian plaza at the bank itself so I'm only assuming the game is on the street..?

Any clarification from a GR person would be cool, thanks.

>info http://www.bilderberg.org

Anyone up for involvement????????????????
