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.

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

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.

Food Not Bombs Co-Founder visits Ireland on Drop Bush Not Bombs tour

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday November 27, 2003 18:38author by Food Not Bombs - FNBauthor email Foodnotbombs at thisbetterworld dot org Report this post to the editors

Keith Mc Henry to visit Ireland 1-9 December

Keith Mc Henry, the co founder of Food Not Bombs is due to visit Ireland next week as part of his Drop Bush Not Bombs tour.

Food Not Bombs is a worldwide organisation based around taking food which would otherwise be wasted and using it to feed the hungry and/or homeless. It emphasises both the exess waste in todays consumer based society and the amount of money wasted on wars when people are going hungry.
We also provide food for political events or demonstrations.

Food Not Bombs Ireland is relatively new, the current Dublin group began at Reclaim the Streets on Car free day last year. Other groups began to appear around the country at the same time and we have worked together to provide food at anti-war marches including Feb 15th and numerous demonstrations in Shannon as well as each RTS and Buy Nothing Day.
The Dublin group have had run-ins with the park keepers in Stephen's green and have successfully given out veggie burgers outside Mc Donalds and in other locations.
We get out food from vegetable markets at the end of the day or from supermarkets who disgard huge amounts of bread daily.

More people are needed to keep Food Not Bombs going and if anyone is interested in helping please contact us at foodnotbombs@thisbetterworld.org

Keith will be arriving in Dublin and will remain here for a few days. He will talk about the movement he helped start 23 years ago. He will describe Food Not Bombs history, his experience as an American political prisoner and the global Food Not Bombs movement. He will show a video about Food Not Bombs. Keith will also discuss the movement's future and plans for A Food Not Bombs World Gathering to be held the week before the Republican National Convention in New York City.

He will be speaking in Dublin in SpaceKraft on December 3rd at 7pm. SpaceKraft is located on Strandville avenue, North Strand, Dublin 3.

He will travel to Shannon and be there for the Blockade on December 6th helping food not bombs groups from around Ireland to prepare and dispense food. From there he will travel to Belfast on the 7th where he will also be speaking before leaving for Scotland to continue his tour.

FnB is an excellent initiative, and a wonderful way to bear witness at a protest against war and occupation.

This will actually be taking place on the 2nd of December, thats a Tuesday at 7.30, same place. Sorry about that little mix up.

If you dont know how to get to Spacekraft it's just off North Strand road. If you go past Connolly Station, up Amien st. over the canal, it's the second turn on your right, down Strandville ave and between the two sets of railway tracks.
