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.

Are Girls Really ?Masking? Their Autism? Fri Oct 24, 2025 15:45 | Mary Gilleece
Teenage girls are now being labelled as autistic even when they have no symptoms, with the claim they are 'masking' their condition. Isn't it more likely that the 'autism spectrum' is now just a racket, says Mary Gilleece.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Its good to see someone in Labour doing some good work for the Rossport 5. Pity their Leader isnt as active?
The government has agreed to a request from the Leader of the Labour Party, Pat Rabbitte TD, for a Dail debate on the jailing of the Rossport Five.
The matter had been raised on the Order of Business yesterday by Deputy Rabbitte who asked the Taoiseach to agree to such a debate. The Taoiseach eventually agreed that the Party Whips should discuss the matter and at the Whips meeting last it was agreed that the debate would take place next Tuesday.
“Now that the Dail has returned from its recess, I believe it is essential that there should be a debate on this issue. It is unacceptable that we should find ourselves in a situation where 5 citizens have been left languishing in jail for over three months”, Deputy Rabbitte said yesterday evening.
“It is incumbent on all parties and members of the Dail to do all possible to find a solution to this difficult dispute that will allow the earliest possible return of these men to their families.
“I hope that the Dail debate will be used in a constructive manner to help find such a solution. While final details have yet to be worked out, I believe it is essential that it should include provision for the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources to come into the House and answer questions on the government’s approach to this whole issue”.
Why doesn't he come out in support of the demands of the men in prison? He's doing exactly the same as Kenny. Pretending to be on the side of the men when he is not. Hence the reason he will not be speaking at the national protest.
