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. The Saker >>

Legal advice from an anarchist viewpoint for those arrested at May Day It is now clear that there will be arrests over the weekend - it has always been clear, but they have now started happening.
It is also clear that the 'largest security operation in the State' is pushing the resources of the state to the limits.
There are a number of non-violent ways that we can overburden the state if someone gets arrested. The overridding principle is that if a Guard or soldier is busy looking after you, then he's not out arresting others.
Anyway, here's my my advice - if everyone who is arrested follows it the 'wheels of justice' will soon grind to a halt.
- DO NOT GIVE YOUR NAME TO THE ARRESTING OFFICER. While this gives the policeman a reason to arrest you in the first place, he won't be able to do it himself and someone else will walk free - don't be selfish now, and your fun is just about to begin anyway. You will not be released until they find out your identity, but be pleased with the fact that you are taking up valuable cell space and that some other protester isn't there instead. I suggest staying there without giving your name until at least Sunday night - should then give you Monday to get home. In any event, you may not have a choice, as you might be kept there until court on Tuesday morning, but by chosing this course of action, you are making the choice of who is (or isn't) kept, not them. However, don't give them a false name - that is obstruction and you can be done for it.
- DO NOT CARRY ID/IDENTIFYING MATERIAL. Linked to the above, but if you are arrested, they can search you and they will soon find bankcards (leave the house with enough cash for the day), licenses etc.
- SIT DOWN. Of course, if you are arrested the police can use reasonable force - they aren't allowed to, but often do use unreasonable force, but it takes more guards to use force than if you co-operate. Don't make things more difficult for yourself later by being aggressive/resisting arrest - simply sit down.
- KEEP SITTING DOWN. Don't think that when you arrive in the back of the van or at the station that its all over. By refusing to move, you will be requiring at least two (perhaps more) ijeets to move you everywhere you go - whether its to the interview room, the cell, to see your lawyer - don't move of your own volition. Let them earn their money. Again, they can use reasonable force, and you may be asking for a kicking from the more unreasonable ones, but lie back and think of your comrades who are giving them hell on the outside - you're helping just as much as if you were still there.
- REQUEST A LAWYER. By law you have the right to see one - depending on how long the lawyer takes to get there, it may also be a useful delaying tactic. Change lawyers as often as you feel necessary.
- REQUEST A DOCTOR. Tell them if you are feeling sick, that your injuries inflicted by them are life threatening. They have to get a doctor and you have to be medically examined. Don't trust the doctor - he's on their side, but make sure you outline your whole medical position to him and that it takes as long as possible. And remember - let them take you into the doctor - don't make anything easy for them.
The sheer numbers of those who are willing to protest against the State will bring it down.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4They have to feed you as well and of course let you rest so when you get to the cop shop get fed, sleep it off for a few hrs and then say the food made you unwell, refusing any help would land them in all sorts of bother and because of recent cock ups (re warrents) they will do everything by the numbers. And for the love of God no curses or anything that can be considered offensive as it is an offence and they will be happy to hang you on it.As they will be charging you with S.F.A. it is a good way to waist time and create stacks of paperwork which may deter our thin blue line from being so quick to lift people in future
"The sheer numbers of those who are willing to protest against the State will bring it down. "
700 at the latest count. Very unlikely. Who taught you how to count? Enron?
It was my understanding that it is illegal to either withhold your name, or give a false name to an arresting cop.As for sitting down, the cops will invariably resort to physical tactics, as was seen on Saturday.They care less about what is legal and illegal than a lot of the people they are arresting especially if the only complaints procedure will be carried out by the cops themselves and end up in the wastepaper basket-good idea about the food though.
That's a genius plan. You're outnumbered 10:1 so all you'll do is give some very bored polis an excuse to go to the station for a smoke break. The lads thank you :-)
The witholding the name thing is another product of a genius mind. Week in custody for that man 'till his memory improves. Put him in with someone smelly until he learns to walk again.
Oh, the possibilities.......
