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.

The word picnic originates from the French piquenique, which came into use around the end of the 17th century. The word denoted a party to which everyone brought along some food. The notion of an outdoor meal did not emerge until the 19th century.
Fashionable people of the early 19th century England formed the Picnic Society for purposes of entertainment. Each member was expected to provide a share of the entertainment and of the refreshments. The idea of mutual sharing and
cooperation was fundamental to the original significance of the picnic. The concept of sharing food on an outdoor excursion, however, is not the invention of the French or the English. The Greeks held symposiums where guests ate and
discussed important matters.
The word picnic today includes almost every type of informal outdoor meal from barbecue to fish-fry.
Water is the best choice of drink because it quenches your thirst and keeps you hydrated. After lunch take a walk to stimulate your digestion and uplift your mood.
Food Safety
In order to avoid food poisoning or an upset stomach, you have to follow some basic rules.
¥ Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold. Bacteria prefer temperatures between 50-125 degrees F.
¥ Prepare foods as close to picnic time as possible.
¥ Have plenty of ice for your cooler, especially if you go for a whole-day outing.
¥ Pack food in small airtight containers inside larger containers.
¥ Put foods in the cooler in the order opposite to using
them. Pack first the food you will use last.
¥ Take out the food only as you need it. Repack the containers and keep them in a shady spot.
¥ Don't leave food unattended. Creatures small and large can take a few or more bites. Beware of flies, wasps, squirrels. They are very good at finding food!
the picnic will be a blast. in case of rain we will storm the city, disarm the police and then go home and play chess or pingpong.
well, let's hope for the best.
viva la revolution, the bourgeois are quaking in their boots at the thought of anarchist picnics, i don't know which is worse this or socialist table quizes!
that at least 3 of the organizers will participate in the special olympics, but regardless of their efforts, the picnic will still be a fun way of hanging out with people, eating food and having a laugh.
and as for table quiz....
there's worse things than anarchist picnic and socialist table quiz, for example:
1. hanging around indymedia.ie and writing fairly boring slapstick/slapdick-kinda comments when people are doing shit.
yep, my mom is my dad.
Any betting people out there? Here's a tip.
You should go done the bookies and put a few bets on the special olympics. It doesn't matter who you back... They are all winners.
i hope that a swarm of killer bees come and smitten down you anarchoid scum.
i bet andrew flood will be on accusing sp and swp of setting leninist bees on their little anachro picnic.
hope it rains on you, you wasters!
