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

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REPORT
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO: ANGUS ROBERTSON MP, SNP FOREIGN AFFAIRS SPOKESMAN
FROM: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
SUBJECT: ALLEGED CIA AIRCRAFT FLYING INTO SCOTLAND
DATE: 18TH OF JANUARY, 2006
CC:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In compiling this list of Alleged CIA Aircraft Flying into Scotlandí, it is clear that much detail is still to emerge about the subject. What is beyond dispute is that in recent years there have been scores of flights through Scottish airports by planes operated on behalf of CIA front companies.
Compiling a comprehensive list is made difficult by the following facts:
- The lack of confirmation regarding the number of flights that we are told have operated
within Scottish air space.
- If the aircraft were only chartered by the CIA from a commercial broker, then it is
reasonable to assume that the aircraft would be put out on a commercial rent as soon as
possible.
- Not all flights would be for rendition. A proportion of the flights would probably have
undertaken other intelligence roles, not just in the Middle East but also within Europe,
and as we have seen, within the heart of Central Europe.
- Some web sites have now been turned off and one has a statement up on the site saying
that 'It has been recommended we remove this page so we have. The information
is out there so if you need to find it is available just not here. Sorry...' I feel it is
now safe to say that we have government departments on both side of the Atlantic that
are not happy with the glare of publicity.
It is my hope that I give all who read this a better understanding of this form of aviation flying.
In observing the routes that the aircraft follow, and not just those ones that are operating via
Scotland I would draw attention to Kyrgyzstan. This is a country where it is reasonable to assume that 'deals have been made.' This is a country that has natural resources such as significant deposits of gold and rare earth metals; locally exploitable coal, oil, and natural gas; other deposits of nepheline, mercury, bismuth, lead, and zinc.
When looking at the CIAís flying operations in Europe, certain airports have a high concentration
of flights, such as:
· Malta
· Prague
· Frankfurt
· Budapest
· Rotterdam
· Spain (Palma de Mallorca, Madrid)
Malta- Although Malta has taken the Boeing 737s, it would appear to be the away base for the
ATRís and CASA aircraft that are operating within Afghanistan.
Prague- From what I have read it would appear that almost half of what is believed to be the
CIAís fleet has been into Prague airport, and there is photographic evidence to back this
statement up. This is one of the reasons why I would say to those who are looking at the prison
part not to write off Kyrgyzstan. I have been able to track many flights but not all. The MD82
aircraft that is used as a flying prison was also linked by the Canadian parliament as operating
as Kyrgyzstan Airlines while still a US Prison Plane, thus the reason I feel Kyrgyzstan should
not be written off.
Frankfurt- For the CIA Frankfurt is home away from home; you could call the Air Force
Basis at Frankfurt a ìComfort Zoneî. This is mainly the European base for the 737ís and the
L100-30ís. It would also be viewed as the European warehouse for the CIA to help support
other operations including Afghanistan.
Budapest- Over the last two years Budapest has become very active with CIA cargo aircraft.
Using cargo aircraft does make it hard to say one way or the other if prisoners are on-board the
aircraft. Remember also that the CIA conducts other operations in Europe.
Rotterdam- Has been looking after the ATRís and the CASA aircraft, but on short stays
relating to re-fuelling and overnight stays.
Spain- Certain parts of the CIA's operation in Spain have been interesting, as it has been
noted, and photographic evidence is available, that when a terrorist attack in Madrid took place
the following day N313P (now N4476S) was departing from Palma de Mallorca Airport.
I hope the following will help you understand how the companies are set-up which is called
the 'SHELL GAME':
CIA-AIRPLANE SHELL COMPANIES Have ONE Employee: A LAWYER. A list of known
fronts, including Prescott, is below. The chart shows how the fronts and other, real, companies
work for the CIA.
[FOR CHART, download the original report at:
https://www.sharemation.com/GeorgeDoole/CIA_SNPreport.pdf?uniq=t3zpkt ]
Front Companies and Real Companies
The fronts are set up by lawyers. They are holding companies for aircraft and they provide a mail
drop for business related to the aircraft.
Several real companies, contractors, some set up by the CIA, have actual operations, including
employees and premises such as aircraft hangars.
The CIA minimizes contact with outsiders and works through buffers. The front-company
lawyers are buffers between civilians and the CIA.
The Naval Engineering Logistics office is the go-between for military personnel
interfacing with the CIAís aviation office on routine matters.
For sensitive top-secret mission communication, the channel is direct between the military and
the CIA. The CIA employs military personnel in renditions, and communications about this
would be direct.
The contractors occupy a position of trust with the CIA, and communication with them is more or
less direct.

N822US came to the attention of the press some time ago, to be precise 7th
of December 2002, one day before landing at Glasgow Airport. At that
time it has been reported that the landed in Frobisher Bay in Canada, the

[The document next gives the following transcript of an exchange on the floor of the Canadian Parliament, regarding the above plane.]
Public Safety
Ms. Pauline Picard (Drummond, BQ): Mr. Speaker, for three
days the Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness has
been unable to answer a simple question about whether or not prison
planes landed on Canadian soil.
Here is a very simple question for her. Can she confirm that a
Kyrgyzstan airlines DC-9, registration number N822US, identified
as a U.S. prison plane, landed in Frobisher Bay on December 7,
2002, in Goose Bay on March 12, 2005, and again in Goose Bay on
June 1, 2005?
Hon. Pierre Pettigrew (Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lib.): Mr.
Speaker, the Deputy Prime Minister has answered that question. We
have no reliable information proving that the United States is
conducting activities in Canada that are in breach of Canadian or
international law.
As I myself said in this House, if we find out that Canadian territory
is being used in contravention of Canadian or International law, we
will of course raise the issue with the United States. Canada expects
its territory, including its air space, not to be used by foreign
governments for activities that are in breach of Canadian or
international law.
Ms. Pauline Picard (Drummond, BQ): Mr. Speaker, that is
enough. The minister is unable to tell us whether a plane landed in
Canada or not because she has something to hide. After what
happened to Maher Arar, we are right to be worried.
What is the minister hiding from us?
Hon. Pierre Pettigrew (Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lib.): Mr.
Speaker, the minister has answered this question very clearly.
We have no reliable information to support the suspicions the Bloc
Québécois is trying to stir up once again. There is no reliable
information to confirm that Canadian air space was used in breach
of Canadian or international law.11

[End of transcript of Canadian Parliament discussion on N822US.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is one very interesting statement made by Ms. Pauline Picard (Drummond, BQ), she
said 'Kyrgyzstan airlines DC-9, registration number N822US, identified as a U.S. prison
plane.'
Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked country, surrounded by China, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and
Uzbekistan. It is a nation with abundant natural resources such as significant deposits of gold and
rare earth metals; locally exploitable coal, oil, and natural gas; other deposits of nepheline,
mercury, bismuth, lead, and zinc. 12 It is understandable that the Americans would have an
interest in Kyrgyzstan.
In 2005 N822US attracted the attention of the Norwegian Press. The press became interested after
the aircraft allegedly used in CIA service, made an illegal stop-over at Sola airport on June 1 of
2005, and again on June 18th 2005. Government flights are required to obtain special permission
to land. The plane came from Bucuresti, and after stopping at Stavanger for a little over an hour
for refuelling, it continued to the US Naval Air Station at Keflavik, Iceland. No one was allowed
access to the plane at Sola airport13.
When the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs ìinquiredî into the matter of the June 1 stopover,
the US response was reported to be ìno knowledge.î This was also Rumsfeld's claim when
he visited the Nato base at JattÂ/Stavanger a week later. There was "not an ounce" of connection
to the government as far as he or anyone in the DoD knew. He added, 'Obviously, you don't
know what you don't know.' 14
One week after the official Norwegian request was made and Norwegian press had tracked down
the plane, US Defence Secretary Rumsfeld still had no idea whose plane this was and what it was
doing. The US gave no other official explanation.
On November 16, Norwegian officials met with of the US Embassy, with whom they had an "undramatic"
conversation. Responding to questions from journalists, Prime Minister Jens
Stoltenberg simply stated that "When the Americans say the planes were not in government
service, we must believe them." As late as November 12, the Norwegian daily Aftenposten
reported that the US never replied to the Norwegian request for information about the MD-80,
and that the US never comments on CIA activity.
In the November 16 article, Anne Lene Dale Sandsten of the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign
Affairs says the MoFA has no reason to believe that the US has done ìanything wrongî with
respect to the Gardermoen landing. She then goes on, referring to the MoFA's request for
information after the June 1 landing of the MD-80 at Sola: ”The Americans informed us at the
time that there had been no prisoners onboard.”
So, Secretary Rumsfeld was basically saying: 'We have absolutely no knowledge about this so-called
United States Marshals Service plane, since we don't know what we don't know, but I
stress that no prisoners were onboard when the plane didn't land at Sola airport.' 15

[PHOTO and caption] The photo of the aircraft the Herald believed to belong to the CIA, in Prestwick in 2004. And they are right.
Basic History:
In the Herald dated the 14/12/05, Michael Settle wrote an article entitled 'The CIA used torture
flights, says watchdog,' 18 in this article he has a photo of what is Gulfstream V aircraft with
engines running. With the registration move from N8068V to N44982 in 2004,19 it would also
appear that the firms that the aircraft are hidden under are Ghost companies.20 This is not an
unusual thing for a security service to operate misdirection, especially when an aircraft
registration becomes too well known.
18 The Herald, 14/12/2005, page 3, ìThe CIA used torture flights, says watchdogî
19 http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NNumSQL.asp?NNumbertxt=44982
20 http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2004/12/306925.shtml
On paper Premier Executive Transport Services owned the aircraft which was nicknamed
'The Gantanamo Bay Express' because the aircraft is used in the transportation of Al-Qaeda
suspects from locations in Europe and the Middle East. Registered as N379P, it later changed
registration to N8068V. The aircraft sold on paper by Premier Executive Transport Services Inc
to two Limited Liabilities companies: Bayard Foreign Marketing, and Keeler and Tate
Management, and that time it took a new registration N44982.
N8068V now re-registered as N44982; on paper the aircraft also has a new owner and that being
Bayard Foreign Marketing. But not all seems to be above board, [according to the Indymedia article ] 'Portland Company. BAYARD Foreign MARKETING appears to be a CIA front complete with imaginary directors' 21. [I]t was also reported that Portland independent media center had undertaken, 'an
extensive database search of a sample of 44 of those [director ]names [and] turned up none of the information that
usually emerges in such a search: no previous addresses, no past or current telephone numbers, no
business or corporate records. In addition, although most names were attached to dates of birth in
the 1940s, 50s or 60s, all were given Social Security numbers between 1998 and 2003.' 22 The
New Yorker stated on the 14.02.2005 (page 2) 'This jet, which has been registered to a series of
dummy American corporations, such as Bayard Foreign Marking, of Portland, Oregon, has
clearance to land at U.S. military bases.' 23
The history of the aircraft is as follows:
· The aircraft was first registered on 18.11.1999 as N581GA. [GA stands for the manufacturer, Gulfstream America, and 581 is the GA serial number, which does not change.]
· On 24.03.2000 it became N379P.
· On 29.01.2004 it became N8068V.
· On 01.12.2004 the aircraft then became N44982.
I accept the dates and numbers are correct for aircraft as there is much independent evidence to
the draw on.24 25 26 27
However, after the whole of Europe became aware of this aircraft in early November
2005, the CIA put this executive jet on sale at an airplane broker on November 11. Due to the
tainted past of the plane, and the great number of landings since 1999 (1117 times), the broker
could not do anything but offer this Gulfstream V on his website as 'Priced Below Market,' in
headlines. 28 29

Basic History: Once again we find that American aircraft are having questions asked
about them in the Canadian Parliament. The following was asked on the
22nd of November 2005:
Public Safety
Mr. Serge Ménard (Marc-Aurèle-Fortin, BQ): Mr. Speaker,
yesterday we asked the government about landings in Newfoundland
by U.S. prison planes. The Minister of Public Safety told us that she
had no information on that. Iceland knows, Spain knows, the
European Union knows, Normand Lester from the daily Le Journal
de Montréal knows, and so do several other media, but the minister
responsible for public safety does not know.
How do we explain the fact that the Minister of Public Safety is so ill
informed and that, moreover, she refuses to ask Washington to
provide explanations?
42 http://www.mbl.is/morgunbladid/itarefni/326.pdf
[English]
Hon. Anne McLellan (Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of
Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, I
was very plain yesterday, but let me repeat for the hon. member. We
have no information or reason to believe that any plane that has
landed in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador or elsewhere had
anything to do with the practice of extraordinary rendition.
Let me underscore again for the hon. member that the country, this
government, has never returned anyone to a country where they face
a substantial risk of torture. We are in full compliance with both our
domestic and international obligations.
[Translation]
Mr. Serge Ménard (Marc-Aurèle-Fortin, BQ): Mr. Speaker, will
the minister commit to inquire?
Let us be clear. Can the Minister of Public Safety tell us if, indeed,
aircraft N221SG and N196D did transit through Canada, and if they
were carrying prisoners that the Americans call terrorists?
Can the minister at least get that information?
[English]
Hon. Anne McLellan (Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of
Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, I
have no information that any planes landed in St. John's,
Newfoundland and Labrador, or anywhere else, carrying passengers
that involved the practice of extraordinary rendition43

I went looking for the pdf file, following your instructions. I used the password and was allowed in, then began a 20 minute (twice) wait whilst my computer retrieved file infomation. Eventually and both times I got an error message, that the file was nowhere to be found.
Might be an idea to rename and encrypt the pdf file, and put it on another server. Give loads of time for folks to download and then post the password.

Maybe the site was overloaded earlier. The only problem I had was not being prepared for the User Name and Password when the Login box opened. Maybe it's just my browser, but I couldn't go back to fetch it, so have the User Name and Password at the ready.
Thanks for putting all this material together.
