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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9Just wanted to send my well wishes to the O'Donnells.
Hope you get better soon, this incident will not just be swept under the carpet. Hope you recover quickly. regards and good luck.
Wish I could be back there now, but can only send my symbolic solidarity from here, and, well admiration.
I hope you will get a new boat soon and go back to doing your thing, hope to have you back up and in fighting mode soon, and hope you will get a hero's reception when you come back. cheers for all your sacrifice, you will win, shell will loose! keep up the good fight!
I just wanted to point out that at five of the ten members of the terrorist cell in Bolivia are former or current IRMS employees.
Very strange that Mr O Donnell has refused to make a complaint to the Garda about the incident it is quite clear that this did not happen the way O Donnell says it did. According to the Garda who went to the assistance of the boat in distress that there was no other vessel anywhere near O Donnels boat which to me it seems that he deliberately sunk the boat to try to blame Shell.
The gardai have made them selves enemies of the Shell protestors, they have been working in cooperation with the IRMS security thugs and have witnessed dozens of assaults on peacefull protestors. having assaulted many people them selves, they also continuosly spin lies and deciept about the protesters being IRA terrorists.
After the savage beating by both Gardai and later hooded security thugs of Willie Corduff they told a complete pack of lies on the RTE news saying that a security man was injured by hooded military type assasins, ( protestors)weilding iron bars.
NIETHER WILLIE OR PAT CAN TRUST THESE SWINES, I think that is why they are reluctant to report any thing to them.
This may be a mistake in the eye of the public, enableing doubtors like yourself to hold on to illogical opinions.
Very strange that Mr O Donnell has refused to make a complaint to the Garda about the incident
UNTRUE. The Gardai have since retracted that remark.
Mr O'Donnell contacted the Gardai and made a complaint over the telephone. Circumstances being what they are did you expect the ambulance to take him to the police station instead of the hospital?
it is quite clear that this did not happen the way O Donnell says it did.
Watch out for this phrase. Polticians and spin doctors use it a lot. When no other evidence is offered (or exists) they will say "it is quite clear" which indicates they are asserting something and don't even 'feel' a need to back it up (or simply don't have the proof) . a glowing example, who loved the phrase is Tony Blair "it is quite clear that he has Weapons of Mass Destruction" "Clearly, he is in breach" etc.
According to the Garda who went to the assistance of the boat in distress that there was no other vessel anywhere near O Donnels boat which to me it seems that he deliberately sunk the boat to try to blame Shell.
According to the Garda? First, look at your source... and these are the same people who said no complaint was made to them, and later had to retract that statement.
Secondly, as is fairly obvious, if you spent some time floating in an inflatable life raft, (which are not equipped with marine radio , hence the need to fire a flare to attract attention) then the culprits had adequate time to flee. And it's not like the cops would be all too interested in chasing them anyway.
You can be pretty damned sure that despite the fact that the sunken vessel is a crime scene, there will be no attempt by the Garda Sub Aqua team to look for evidence of how it was sunk etc.
Go over the newscasts of the last 36 hours on RTEI and TG4 and list the first four head items on each cast and see how the rest of the country compares to events in Erris. Life and limb and crime on ATM machines elswhere rate much higher as well as events from 40 years ago.
Excellent action - reminds us of our efforts at Clonskea HQ of Shell as Ogoni Solidarity Ireland. We were not wasting our time as the Wiwa case has shown this week. We spent many days around Shell in those years.
Nice work, folks - keep telling 'em! Much love to Chief, Martin, Jonathan, & all O'Donnell family & brave Rossport/Kilcommon people.
...the tide will turn.
Great protest, very 'imaginative. Here comes the men in $hella.
