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.

Irish Army and LVF - the connection

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Tuesday September 07, 2004 05:48author by Mark O'Connor Report this post to the editors

A recent ceremony in Mayo honouring Victoria Cross winner Sergeant-Major Cornelius Coughlan for his participation in the mass murder of hundreds of thousands in India in 1857 was attended by Minister Michael Smith and army Chief of Staff , Lt. General Jim Sreenan. But who was behind this "commemoration"?

The commemoration was organised by a group know as Military Heritage tours. They are funded by the British National Lottery and other groups such as, the "Machine Gun Corps Old Comrades' Association"


http://www.mgcorps.ndirect.co.uk/

.....and.....


http://www.greengairsthistle.com/GTFB.htm

......the Greengairs Thistle Flute band.


Greengairs Thistle Flute Band which was expelled in 1988 from the Scottish Orange Order for anti-Catholic and racist bigotry like to fly UVF flags and banners as well as taunting Nationalist on their visits to the North.


Heritage tours is run from the Mayo home of former Irish Defence Forces Captain Donal Buckley and "Captain" Tony Martin, formerly of the FCA. They also organise trips to WW2 sites to honour her majesties forces too! God Bless them.


http://www.militaryheritagetours.com/tours/db_tours.html



Present along with Minister for Defence Michael Smith, local politicos and a band of Irish Defence Forces top brass headed by Chief of Staff, Lt.General Jim Serrnan was the British Ambassador and his MI5 entourage. All who stood proudly under the Union Jack, protected by G2 military Intelligence fresh from their latest assignment, following and harassing anti-war activists and members of the Muslim community in Ireland.


Nice to know the Irish Defence Forces stand side by side with sectarian racist bigots to honour Imperialist killers . I suppose we should be glad they are at least finally showing their true colours..............red, white and blue.


Captain Donal Buckley served in Dundalk and Monaghan in the bad ole days when the "British and Irish governments faced a common terrorist threat".


At Old Comrades Day in Ballymena army base Donal , Tony and their band of jolly Old Comrades from Military Heritage Tours received extraordinary hospitality from Lt General Trousdel who took the salute as they marched past. Tiffin anyone?


It's hard to say if Cornelius was a war criminal or not as the mists of history have fallen on this despicable period of British history but we do know the methods the British army used in those days and that in suppressing the "Indian Mutiny" many hundreds of thousands of Indian men , women and children were slaughtered.


Even as late as 1920 their "Old Comrades" in the Black and Tans travelled the same roads in Mayo where our minister and military recently honoured Cornelius Coughlan. The Tans dragged local republican tailor, Michael Tolan, from his home. A man who had been disabled from birth. He was beaten, tortured, and then tied to the back of an armoured car, dragged through the streets of Ballina to Shraheen Bog where he was eventually killed. He was unidentifiable except by a thimble in one of his pockets.


Take a salute Lt. General Jim Serrnan and the boys and girls of G2. You and your friends do you proud! Always part of the coalition of the shilling.
