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.

Public Meeting on 'Dubsky v Ireland' High Court Decision

category national | anti-war / imperialism | event notice author Monday January 09, 2006 18:25author by BPauthor email BlackPope at operamail dot com Report this post to the editors

At Teacher's Club, 36 Parnell Sq. West, Dublin 1, @ 2 pm, Room 8, Saturaday 14 Jan 06

Following the style set by the 'Horgan' judgement, the High Court has denied all the reliefs sought.

Eoin Dubsky (the Shannon Warplane Redecorator) launched this Judicial Review proceedings in late 2002 to prevent the Government continuing to participate in and facilitate the War in Afghanistan.

In her judgement given on 13th December 2005, Macken J. has even managed to deny that there is (or was) any war against that country by the US & Co.

The best available copy of the (50 page) judgement is at the link saying .mp3 - just save the file to your drive and rename it with a .zip extension, then unzip that and you've got the whole Word.Doc formatted text.

(Sorry Editors, I had to resort to this little trick as it otherwise looses formatting + legibility if I paste in from Word).

The meeting is designed to facilitate discussion on how to further progress the matter, and it is highly recommended to at least have read the whole text before turning up.

Comments / votes can be pasted up here, even if you can't make it.

Anybody serious about helping with this is very welcome.

Schalom, BP

to Eoin Dubsky in this legal challenge.
I could not access the transcript due to the format. Is it available anywhere else?

I can't attend this class if I have to do that much reading before going.

Is this meeting for me or just for those wanting to get into the nitty gritty of Eoin's case?

Ah the horrors of MS-DOS - well, here goes!

A filename consists of 2 parts, the followed by a DOT, followed by a 3 letter extention indicating the type of file you're handling

e.g. FU2Judge.mp3 would be the audio of a traditional Irish refrain often heard in the Courts.

To get the Dubsky transcript - right-click on the green link above where it says "DL this file ... etc", and save it to your disk - it will have the following name:

Dubsky_v_ireland__hct_judgement_13_dec_2005__proofed_ocr.mp3

Then find this file on your disk and rename it so the extention is .ZIP, as opposed to .MP3.
(Mark the filename in Windows Explorer and Right-Click mouse, the option RENAME is down the list)

Next you unpack the .ZIP file using WinZIP, WinRAR or some similar little free program you can DL from net if not already on ur computer (on XP it should work automatically) - this should then output the Word.doc text file, which is what u want.

The reason for this complicated manouevre is because IMC.ie prevents posting of text files.


PS: to Me, you'll have to find the answer to that for yourself - one way would be to come along and see
