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.

Ofgem has been caught using the climate Armageddon 'worst case scenario' RCP8.5 as the basis for its energy planning. This is a scenario so ludicrous even the Biden administration abandoned it, says Nick Rendell.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7I think that people like Kirk, DeRossa, etc should be exposed for their positions on the war on iraq. Surely that's why Eoin Dubsky is running- to show an alternative to these pro-war pro-US Imperialism candidates.
of those TDs who voted against the War.
name and laud!
In their latest dodgy dipping of their politics in their RESPECT coalition with British muslim leaders and Sadam supporter George Galloway the SWP have called for an transfer to Blair's Labour Party.
"On the PINK ballot paper for London mayor you have two
votes: in the first column you should put an X against Lindsey German,
Respect – The Unity Coalition (George Galloway). In the second column,
your second preference, you may want to vote for Ken Livingstone."
The SWP's Respect Coalition has also called for a vote for Birmingham's People's Justice Party. The PJP base themselves among reactionary muslims in Bermingham. They recently called for people not to support the LibDems as they support children learning about gay relationships in school!
SWP: What are you doing? Whay are you voting against Women's Rights to be on the Respect platform for the elections?
I posted a comment yersterday expressing my disgust with Mr Dubsky's posting. It isn't there this morning. What censorial policy is at work here? I thought free speech was an important aspect of this site. Who removed my comment and why?
to be naming and shaming Kirk and others. For a start the fact that you are running against him in the Euro election could lead to some people dismissing your post as a simple electioneering tactic.
Your posting smacks too much of US style negative campaigning and I don't think it will translate into more votes for you. Not that Leinster voters are logging onto Indymedia to check out candidates - but if they are your 'post might be too negative for the middle of the road voter who will determine these elections.
Your reputation as a committed peace activist could be undermined by such postings, if your anti-war position is construed by the media as an election ploy. There are enough bad bastards in the mainstream media who are itching to destroy any kind of progressive/alternative candidate and postings such as the one above will be a gift to them.
While its undoubtedly true that Kirk and others do share some complicity in the war in Iraq I don't think it is big enough issue for the kind of voters who will be voting. It's not going to get you elected nor is it going to prevent the election of Kirk. Maybe I'll be proved wrong but I suspect not.
I can't say I wish you luck as I think that it would be better if you didn't run as the Green candidate Mary White has a real fight to retain the Green seat and your candidacy could split the vote and allow in Kirk or some other right-winger.
So what if its an electioneering tactic?!
That is why he is standing in the election to expose these fuckers that support what is happening in Iraq.
I won't vote for Eoin, it is just my personal prefernce. However, I agree with his tactic. It is a tactic used by ALL politicians against their oponents.
Of course, the right wingers, or rather, geeks, will try come out with any rubbish argument.
The reason for this is simple; 21st century corporate right wingism is a mentalk disorder.
I personally believe capitalism to be a necessary evil, but that the likes of indymedia, etc, are part of the phenomenon called civil society. Pressure groups, etc, are needed to point out the discrepencies within society, so that they can be remedied and society can evolve as a whole.
Those who do the opposite are a disease. Remember, those at the top will try any tactic , I know I would. Supporting without question the views of mass media, FF/PDs, the ruling elite, etc, is a form of complacancy, and complacancy is a disease, much in the same way muscle will get wasted if a body organism sits down and does nought but watch telly.
Remembr, the real civil society is winning, those reprobates of the right wil be tgoast one day.
Brendan O' Connor, The Devil already has an oven heated up and ready for you. You KNOW you are a LIAR.Saddam has one ready and waiting also, it will just be a bit warmer, and his stay wil be longer.
Bush is a retard who will be reincarnated, and Dony Rumsfeld wil get mental health treatment. But it is those who know they are lying just so they can get their pay check, now they are going to be the Devil's stew.
