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.

you get the feeling we are going all ·out· on this?
by IOSAF Mon, Jun 16 2003, 7:26pm
yes.
not just O as'if giving you news about Barça, oh no, tis everywhere, RTE telling you about Beckham, will he sign won't he sign¿? and everyone else with a wee bit of Bearla assaulting the IMCs.
so what has happened?
Martin Shaw, briton "puadeen imigrant" resident in Barcelona (Catalonia which is not Spain), dropped 20 metres protesting against the G8 (which does not include either Ireland or Spain [they are not "great" enough yet] he dropped because a Swiss Policeman who like all Swiss recieved 3 years military training, cut his rope.
=Attempted Murder.
20 metres is about 60 foot.
a two storey Irish house is about 8 metres.
Liberty Hall at the eight story is about 20 metres.
So the good folk of Barcelona went and occupied first the French consulate, you may have seen the video, and then the Swiss consulate, they even went and disrupted the newlty elected municipal assembly's investiture.
-& now two of them are hanging off the same building which houses the Irish consulate.
And Martin is well enough to write you all a letter.
http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=72607&group=webcast
and it is ·very· hot.
Now that normally pisses off people who live in the islands once referred to as the British Isles, [Ireland is not Britain] coz they get all "jaysus well fur some, effin 37º, watsdat in Farenheit, bleedin scorchin".
yes.
horrible.
Help Martin.
now if you have tried the "freedom of Capital thing" and gone to your local branch of the AIB, BofI, Ulster Bank, TSB etc., you maybe have lodged something like the "price of a pint/spliff".
or maybe you haven't.
an account set up in Ireland would be a good idea, coz Ireland has two currencies!
yes Sterling and Euro.
you could perhaps ask someone in sunglasses to arrange this, they maybe know how the border thing works......
& GO on Helping Martin.

More than 80 hours hanging from the Swiss consulate building!!!! And resisting still!!!!!!.
by Ergela Mon, Jun 16 2003, 7:06pm
Despite Barcelona's warmest summer of the last 20 years, these two people and all the rising group of supporters in front of the building have been resisting for more than 80 hours now.
More than 80 hours hanging from the Swiss consulate building!!!! And resisting still!!!!!!.
Despite Barcelona warmest summer of the last 20 years, this two people and all the rising group of support people who is in front of the building have been resisting more than 80 hours until now.
Their demands are:
1. The immediate release of all prisoners who remain detained and imcommuincate since the G8 summit.
2. The complete withdrawal of criminal charges against all activists present during the bridge action.
3. A transparant, independent public inquiry into the training and orders and the general policing/security policy that surrounded this G8 sunnit. This public inquiry should also contain a specific invesitigation of the police team responsible for cutting the rope that caused the fall and subsequent injuries to Martin Shaw and his fellow activists.
4. The Swiss government to sign a written statement committing to take full responsibility for the acts of its police. This commitment to culpability should include the pledge to fully compensate all injured parties present during the bridge action, and other individuals who have incurred medical or judicial costs as a result of violent repression by the apparantly immune Swiss police forces.

"impunidad" is "impunity".
link to all articles UK IMC on Martin.
Martin Vive!
The correct sentence is:
That's the battle against the unpunished!!!!!
An other correction... some of the Martin's family are staying in the Swiss state, not in Barcelona.
And one interesting link about Martin case
http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=72607&group=webcast
Just say that the last sentence is wrong... the correct is: That's the battle against the unpunishment.
Martin Resiste!!!!!!!!!!
