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.

Global Trade Think Tank at Trinity College

category dublin | miscellaneous | news report author Monday September 08, 2003 22:44author by Mankind Report this post to the editors

Institute for International Integration Studies

News of the rarely mentioned Institute for International Integration Studies housed at TCD Dublin.

As I am sure many of you will know, Trinity College Dublin's Sutherland Centre (largely funded and named after GATT, WTO, WEF and ODC etc. big shot Peter Sutherland) is the home of the 'Institute for International Integration Studies'.
The Institute is described as "a major research initative on the global and regional dimensions of international economic, political and cultural integration". This think tank is partially funded by Coca (we're up to our necks in it in Colombia) Cola amongst others.
Going by the hands that feed the institute it should be quite easy to imagine the nature of the approaches to all matters global trade that are being dreamt up there.
In fairness though, in July 2003 a talking shop called the 'Global Development Challenge' was held by the Institute where American foreign policy and human rights were discussed. This get together was attended by Mary Robinson, Jeffrey Sachs, employees of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, former Mexican President and current director of 'The Yale Centre for the Study of Globalisation' Ernesto Zedillo, Sutherland himself and various other radicals.
The Institute for International Integration Studies is housed in the Sutherland Centre, Level 6 (Penthouse Floor), the Arts Block, in the Main TCD campus.

I just put this in because I was wondering if any of you concerned global citizens, anarcho agitators or neo-crypto-proto-Stasi types have been around there making a nuisance of yourselves at all of late. Have a nice day.

King Globalisation, Peter Pan of the new world order - Sutherland land is in town this morning. Speaking at American Chamber of Commerce 'business lunch' on transatlantic relations. He will no doubt be pushing his agenda for a one world govt., the erosion of national sovereignty and corporate rule. As well as being chair of BP and Goldman Sachs, this sinister dude is Ireland's man on the secretive Bilderberg group - check it out at http://www.bilderberg.org

WELCOME PARTY - 11.30am onwards, Conrad Hotel (near St. Stephens Green), Dublin....

International Conference to highlight and analyse major issues affecting the developing world and the global environment

Trinity College hosts the "Global Development Challenge" Conference

US foreign policy and its impact on human rights in an age of globalisation is just one of the important themes being tackled by an all-day conference being hosted today (Thursday, 10 July 2003) by Trinity College Dublin. The aim of the conference is to highlight and analyse some of the major issues in promoting broadly-based global development and to identify the most effective forms of development assistance.

The event, entitled the Global Development Challenge Conference, has attracted a significant number of notable speakers from around the world, among whom are a Nobel Laureate, a former UN Commissioner for Human Rights, a past President of Mexico, a Pulitzer Prize Winner and a special advisor to the UN General Secretary, Kofi Annan.

Tackling the sensitive issue of American foreign policy in the modern world and its relation to international human rights in an age of globalization is Samantha Power, a former war correspondent currently lecturing in Public Policy at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government, where she was the founding executive director of the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy. Ms. Power is the author of A Problem from Hell?: America and the Age of Genocide, which won the 2003 Pulitzer Prize in general non-fiction.

Another distinguished speaker, the Honourable Ernesto Zedillo, will also address the conference. Mr. Zedillo was President of Mexico from 1994 - 2000 and is now Director of the Yale Center for the Study of Globalisation. Addressing the role played by international institutions in global governance, Mr. Zedillo will focus on the upcoming world trade talks at Cancun. Mr Peter Sutherland, Chairman of BP, will also address the future of multilateralism in international trade negotiations.

Another former head of state and former UN Commissioner for Human Rights, Mrs. Mary Robinson, will address the conference in her current role as Executive Director of the Ethical Globalisation Initiative and will speak on the importance of improving the quality of domestic institutions and policies in developing countries.

A major theme of the conference is the role to be played by scientific research in addressing the healthcare problems facing the developing world: speakers on this topic include Dr. Harold Varmus, a Nobel Prize Winner in Medicine, and Dr Richard Klausner, Director of Global Health at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The conference will also address other priority topics such as the challenge of overcoming hunger in Africa, the HIV/AIDS crisis and the potential role of the ICT sector in accelerating development.

The conference is being hosted by the Institute for International Integration Studies (IIIS) at Trinity College. The IIIS is a major research initiative on the global and regional dimensions of international economic, political and cultural integration. The conference co-organisers are Philip Lane, Director of the IIIS, and Jeffrey Sachs, Director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University and Special Advisor to the United Nations' Secretary General on the Millennium Development Goals.

such as the above stuff on Sutherland, but it soon gets lost among the sort of rubbish that 'Redneck' contributed above. There should be links to the more important information.
