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.

When it Comes to Reparations, the Church of England Doesn?t Care About Evidence or Ethics Mon Sep 22, 2025 11:00 | Nigel Biggar
The Church of England has shown that it doesn't care about evidence or ethics, says Prof Nigel Biggar. Why else, when presented with proof its ?100 million reparations giveaway is groundless, would it press on regardless?

"Another Europe is possible is a broad based alliance with the aim of bringing groups and individuals together from all over the Island of Ireland to co-ordinate events during the EU presidency-"
This is simply not true. It would be accurate if you said:
Another Europe is possible is a campaign set up by the SWP which they hope will become a broad-based alliance... Although members of many other groups have attended meetings, no other organisation has formally affiliated to the alliance [or maybe I'm wrong on this, if so please correct me]

ANOTHER EUROPE IS POSSIBLE
PEOPLE NOT PROFIT AND PEACE NOT WAR
The Irish Government has the Presidency of the EU from January to June 2004. It will be using its term as EU president to increase the competitiveness of the EU, to press for agreement on the draft EU Constitution, and improve EU-US relations. We, however plan to highlight and mobilise for a very different type of Europe.
l No to a Europe of Militarisation and War, No to a European Army. Yes to Irish Neutrality Improving EU/US relations means continuing support for the US/UK led war on terror. Ahern and PDs allow the US military to use Shannon airport, while claiming to oppose the war in Iraq. Ahern and the other EU leaders want a militarised Europe enshrined into any new EU constitution, and closer EU-Israel relations while Palestinians still suffer.
l No a Europe of profit and privatisation. Yes to a Europe of Social rights and workers rights The Irish Government and the EU are promoting a neo-liberal agenda of privatisation, de-regulation, reducing taxes on the wealthy, worsening workers conditions, cutting back in public spending and prioritising the profit of big corporations before the needs of ordinary people. We can see this agenda in the break up and privatisation of Aer Rianta and CIE, in waste services charges, the sell-off of social housing and privatisation in health and education
l No to a Europe of Racism and deportations. Yes to rights of immigrants and asylum seekers The EU promotes the movement of capital and profit across borders while immigrants and asylum seekers face increasing harassment and deportations by the governments of Fortress Europe especially under the Schengen Agreement. We want a real Europe of the welcomes not a fortress Europe-As Justice Ministers meet in Dublin ? Protest for immigrants and asylum seekers rights- 1pm Fri 23rd January, Dublin Castle
May 1st - the day the Irish government is inviting the warmongers Blair, Berlusconi and Aznar, along with the other EU heads of state to celebrate the enlargement of the EU. We invite you to demonstrate in Dublin on May 1st to oppose Blair and others who have Iraqi blood on their hands, and to oppose their neo-liberal Europe of privatisation and poverty.
It is hypocrisy on the part of the FF/PD Government to call May 1st a day of welcomes when they offer no welcome to asylum seekers fleeing war, poverty and exploitation. We invite you to help us build a movement for Another Europe based on solidarity and peace.

A few months ago if you mentioned the name of Jack O Connor to a SWPer, they'd start foaming at the mouth and telling you how he was a stooge of the bosses and was single-handedly responsible for the failure of the bin tax blockades. Now he is a star name in their European front.
Opportunist - oh never. If you asked nicely enough you could get Barrett and Coughlan up there too.
If you don't like the SWP or any other revolutionary socialist groups or parties, that's your problem, but you should not put foo other people from becoming involved in the campaign. If you don't want group X or Y to "use" or lead campaigns get your ass up and become active and involved in the campaign!
If I know that a group is a dishonest front for a cult, I have a duty to warn others about it. And if I think that something is an undemocratic front that has been stitched up in advance by that same cult in their time-honoured fashion, the last thing that I'm going to do is join it.
hey, at least we're safe in the knowledge that their "alliance" (cough) will be over in five months time.
if you're going..
Drop down to the central bank at 5pm and participate in or watch the Street theatre. It's a good laugh, honest
