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.

Meath Ogra Shinn Fein says Moilligh Síos!

category national | miscellaneous | press release author Thursday August 09, 2007 22:17author by David Byrne - Meath Ogra Shinn Fein Report this post to the editors

IrishRepublican.net

Meath Ogra Shinn Fein took to the streets and doorsteps of Navan Town to highlight the National Road Safety awareness campaign undertaken by Ogra Shinn Fein.
'Moilligh Síos!' translated as Slow Down will be the theme for the peer based campaign.
dsc00288.jpg

Ogra Shinn Fein National Organiser Barry McColgan said "Road deaths are one of the biggest killers of our young people in Ireland, so far this year 264 people have lost their lives on Irish roads. We have a responsibility as a youth movement to play our part in combating many of these preventable deaths, and we all have a responsibility as a community to campaign for more awareness and for practical measures that will impact and lower the number of fatalities on roads."
David Byrne, Meath Ogra Shinn Fein added, ''368 Men, Women and Children were fatally injured in road traffic accidents in 2006.''

Meath Ogra Shinn Fein will be approaching the campaign from a youth perspective, and using our young activists to act as peer leaders in engaging with young people on Road Safety. We feel that this is one aspect of the broad campaign which has yet to be developed on and could potentially be one of the most impacting.
In the weeks and months ahead we aim to bring the message of road safety across Ireland. The campaign will include days of action, protests, erecting murals, petitions, lobbying, public meetings. and we will of course in all of this be campaigning to ensure that the proposals from the road safety policy paper are adopted.

A friend of mine who is an OSF activist in Dublin, told me that the membership had voted to accept a motion to make Workers Rights the Next OSF campaign. Can anyone clarify if this is true? If so, why was the decision ignored?

Why aren't Ogra out on the Streets of our Towns and Cities campaigning against drugs and alcohol and the damage it is doing to our kids. They should be organising protests outside the homes of well known drug dealers and the off-licences which are knowingly selling alcohol to our children instead of telling motorists to slow down in Navan.
If you want to do something useful ask your leadership in Sinn fein when are they going to start putting manners in the PSNI like they said they were going to do. Then again this was just another lie to be able to support the cops as demanded by Paisley.

I am living in an area plagued by drug dealers and other scum I have yet to see Ogra or even Sinn Fein on the streets trying to do something about it.
I wouldn't even know a member of Ogra Sinn Fein if I saw one, they seem to spend their time setting up web sites and posing for photos.

i was in SF in the the past left for personal reasons but i hated that line why don't. why don't you... you would sit and watch a drug dealer and give out at others not from your area for not doing anything. that is mental. If a provo did go after a drug dealer you'd be just as quite when the drug dealers are intimidateing republician families

I was in SF in the past and left for personal reasons, in other words you were shafted.
I see however that you were in SF as you use the old 'if you want the drug dealers sorted, do it yourselves, you can't expect us to put our necks on the line' excuse for doing nothing. There's a couple of things you seem to forget, clone, firstly, I'm not an elected representative, elected to look after the interests of my community and supposed to lead the line when that community needs me and my party. If SF were to call for people to come on to the streets to confront the scumbags then I would be first out.
Secondly, clone, SF boldly announced that they were going to hold the police to account and that was their reason for following the SDLP onto the Policing board. Put manners into them we were told, but we all know that was a feeble excuse for allowing Paisley to pressurise them into supporting the PSNI and the courts.
The Police still use these scum to terrorise our communities and SF has yet to demand action, but we all realize that SF are no better than the SDLP when comes to doing something meaningful.

So this is what sinn fein calls a victory, we are left with a so called settlement where drugdealers can intimidate Republican families, we must surely be a crowd of ungrateful B*****s

Well said fish but there are only 4 or 5 little sinns in meath. They do as they are told and if they step out of line they are not let meet him the most high and not to meet him is like not having air. God help them they do their best but are keep down by their local boss ie. look at tara not to be seen. In fact none of the sinners have the balls to be seen helping tara it must be uncool for pro R.U.C. but bet they will be over in King Billys glen to bow to the R.e.v. You see Fish they are lost misgided kids with no were to go they are used for work others would not get out off bed for or leave the pub for. but at least they got on indy and are doing some thing not like their bar stool bosses. Keep it up meath orga you will soon see you are been used.

if SF called you'd come out. well your one of the very few so. Fair play to you. and i mean that i'd respect it.

In reality SF is a small organisation in the past it puched way above its weight. Alot of people took/take that for granted and expect them to be able to solve problems as quick as they clicked there fingers. It doesn't work like that. The woman who would give out that nothing is being done in her area but would rather watch eastenders or fair city than go out side her door and actually do something that's what bothers me. how can SF or anybody else do anything under that. there in the main a voluntary organisation, it's unreasonable to expect them to be there as quick as the AA thats what i was getting at in responce to a previous post by a kd (i think)

republicians getting treatend by drug dealers is nothing new. If you think it's down to recent developments then you're mistaken.

Clone your answers are typical of many Shinners I have heard recently. There seems to have been a list of answers and put-downs drawn up and passed around, because everyone of you seems to answer awkward questions exactly the same. "Our hands are tied....blah...blah... We have to move on" etc.
The fact is clone before SF caved in or as you call it, ceasefires, drug dealers were very few and far apart and wouldn't have dared target Republicans. Since Paisley, with a little help from the SF leadership put a lease around the neck of Republicans, drug dealing has got out of control. Of course this would also assist SF in introducing the PSNI into Republican areas as of late they seem to have been left with egg on their face following their ludicrous claims that they were going to put manners in the PSNI. We're still waiting while the cops still control the scumbags and let them loose on our streets.

Why is it every time Ogra posts something on Indymedia bad people come along and spoil it?
What about this idea, Ogra? Why don't you block the M50 every week on Friday evenings with your placards about road safety?

penny dropped. iam talking from a dublin perspective you seem to be talking from a 6 counties experience.

everything i said is true. obviously the movement was and is bigger in the 6 counties and as such have more capabilities and things might be changeing up there fair enough. But dublin is a different kettle of fish, i don't believe i've been any way miss leading.
