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.

Cáineann an FDP ionsaí Bush ar chearta na bPalaistíneach

category international | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Thursday April 15, 2004 05:06author by Foireann FDP - Feachtas Dlúthpháirtíochta na Palaistíneauthor email supportpalestine at ireland dot comauthor address Bosca 9124, BÁC 1author phone 01-6770253 Report this post to the editors

Cháin Feachtas Dlúthpháirtíochta na Palaistíne go láidir inniu an litir ón Uachtarán Bush chun Phríomhaire Iosraela Ariel Sharon agus ghoir an Feachtas leirsiú ag ambasáid na Stát Aontaith Dé hAoine 16 Aibreán ar 5.00in.

De réir urlabhraí thar ceann an Fheachtais: 'Tá sé i gceist i litir an Uachtaráin Bush cearta dlíthiúla phobal na Palaistíne agus na saoránach aonair a chur ar neamhní ar mhaithe le hIosrael. Níl aon cheart aige a leithéid a dhéanamh.

'Is é an teorainn idir Iosrael agus na Críocha Gafa an bunús dlisteanach amháin do réiteach an dá stáit. Má mhaítear mar a mhaíos litir Bush gur gá é seo a réiteach le “firicí nua ar an talaimh” táthar ag cúitiú sáruithe Iosraela ar Choinbhinsiún Shinéabha le tailte Palaistíneacha. Níl sna “firicí nua” sin ach cóilíneachtaí neamhdhleathacha agus dá mbeadh Iosrael sásta fáil réidh leo de réir dlí bheadh réiteach síochánta níos gaire dúinn i bhfad.

‘Sí an dlí idirnáisiúnta fosta adeir go bhfuil ceart ag teifigh Phalaistíneach filleadh ar a mbailte agus níl údarás ag an Uachtarán Bush an chuid seo den dlí idirnáisiúnta a scrios amach ach oiread.

‘Níl an tUachtarán Bush sásta na cúrsaí seo a phlé leis na ceannairí Palaistíneacha cé go bhfuil siad siúd sásta teacht chun réití ar maithe leis an tsíocháin, ach tá na gealltanais mhóra neamhdhleathacha seo tuillte uaidh ag Ariel Sharon le trí bliana de fheolmhach.

'San óráid ón Uachtarán Bush géilltear arís do choiriúlacht Sharon. Deir Bush go bhfuil sé d’oibligeáid ar Iosrael “bogadh i dtreo stopadh na gníomhaíochta cóilíneachta”. Ní bogadh i dtreo stoptha ach stopadh iomlán a éilíonn Plean Mitchell agus Léarscáil an Bhóthair, atá in ainm is a bheith glactha ag na Stáith Aontaithe.

'Iarann Feachtas Dlúthpháirtíochta na Palaistíne ar Rialtas na hÉireann, agus é i mbun Uachtaránachta Chomhairle na hEorpa, a rá go soileir nach nglacann an tAontas Eorpach ach amháin leis an dlí idirnáisiúnta mar bhunús do réiteach idir Iosrael agus na Palaistínigh. Ní mór don Aontas páirt fhíor-ghníomhach a ghlacadh i gceist an Mheán-Oirthir as seo amach. Is róleir le fada an lae nach aon idirghabhálaí cothrom é Rialtas na Stát Aontaithe.

Iarann muid ar gach saoránach de Bhaile Átha Cliath a thacaíos leis an tsíocháin agus leis an chóir sa Mheán-Oirthear páirt a ghlacadh in agóid lasmuigh de Ambasáid na Stát Aontaithe, Droichead an Dothra, ó 5.00in i leith Dé hAoine 16 Aibreán.’
