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.

Wentwoth not coming to Trinity - No platform won!

category dublin | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday November 13, 2003 20:22author by I hate the hist! Report this post to the editors

No platform very successful in Trinity!

It was revealed last Tuesday that the invitation issued to Tony Wentworth chairman of the Young BNP was withdrawn by Trinity College due to the opposition of students and the likelyhood of a major protest involving the left, trade unions, and many other concerned individuals.

A campaign against wentworth speaking in Trinity and arguing for NO platform had already developed with, SF( I wasnt aware of the SF persons name) The SP (Shane Kenna), SWP (Connor Kostick), Residents against racism, leading members of the College including Ivana Bacik giving their support and some independents playing a leading role in building opposition.

Outside the college it was a known fact that certain groups were actively organising for the meeting.

Many academic staff had signed a letter indicating their displeasure at the invite of a hardened fascist to Trinity, also the security staff were oppossed to his visit.

The "Phil" who had invited Mr.Wentworth over had argued that people should make their own minds up about this man, and that generally he would probally make a fool of himself.

If you only want to stop fascists from speaking why did you want the democratic BNP stopped from talking?!!!
I've already pointed out the differences on the original tread and how you trend lefties are jealous of them.

He/she/it titles his rant "Shut up Keogh! you're talking shite!".

This from a free speech loving communist.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the defence rests.

Bet that makes Alexender Solishyhien[sic] and numerous other writers of the former East blocks who dared to write anything off cue of the free speech loving socialist govts,all liars then??
Socialists are not much better than their hard core commie brothers .Ditto facists and Nazis.
Neither group should be allowed free speech.

Facists are DIFFERENT?I thought it was people like the BNP who went around calling people different and putting them in different "special" categories.It is unfortunate to see that the BNP have had some influence,causing you to copy them.

I like it - "Socialists and the SWP."

Highlight the difference, who knows it might catch on.

Fascists want to smash freedom of speech. Socialists and the SWP do not. Socialists and the SWP defend freedom of speech for everyone but fascists including FF, FG, PD, Labour, Green, SF, RSF, and all the right wing micro parties. But Fascists are a different kettle of fish, they are not interested in polite debate or in democracy. They want to smash democracy, thery want to expel all immigrants, they deny the holocaust happened, they want a pure white race, they want to smash trade unions.

Who are they to deicide on behalf of the "workers" wh othey can and can't listen to.

It's Stalinism.

I am going to lead protests the next time a member of the SWP is invited to speak. They incite hatred too, in a more incidious way, by provoking "class warfare".

Time to censor the communists too.

If these people were fascist, who is their leader considering all fascists are based around a leader? Maybe their just racists? fascism has an idology associated with it, not just racism, but corporatism, cult of the leader, militarism, etc

The SF speaker was former Trinity student Kilian Forde.

Also at the meeting was a fascist spy. Guy sitting at front with the poppy,black hooded sweatshirt, and tight cut blondish hair. don't know his name but a trinity lecturer pointed out problems he has created before and said he is a undergrad student.

here i am again to bore, or be censored. The supression of anyone's right to free speech is a disgrace and the perpetual reincarnation of the facist-leftist pitched battles of the past, which the various socialist groups seek is their fatal flaw. You will never (NEVER) progress beyond the margins until you can accept dialogue.

No free speech for facists.
We refuse to share a forum with facists
etc etc

Remeber you decide who is a facist. Who ever conferred you with such an absolute power???

Absolute power = facism

But I have to say that there were key activists in the Campaign who done outstanding work more so than anyone else (in hindsight far more than I or anyone else in the campaign did) and without them the campaign wouldn't have been such a success within Trinity. These were (I have omitted surnames for privacy's sake but if they are on line and reading this they will know who they are)Rosanna, Vanessa,Matt and Jennifer.

We all played a key role in this campaign to coin a phrase everyone anti fascist or otherwise had a role - we had made it clear that no single individual nor organisation can take credit for the success of this campaign.

To all those involved well done and thanks!

One minor point is to note that the WSM and the Trinity Anarchist Society were also involved in building for the mobilisation against the fash. Although fair play to Connor and Shane in particular as I got the impression that they were doing the bulk of the work. By the way, is Connor still a member of the SWP, since I didn't think that the SWSS was part of the no-platform crowd?
