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

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.

Update on health Crisis

category national | consumer issues | news report author Tuesday April 17, 2007 10:06author by J Aubrey Report this post to the editors

Worst minister for 'Health and Children' ever

This is the update:-

*INO and Psychiatric nurses will continue to highlight inequity in the
health system. They will use their votes in the General election.

*Impact are planning a clerical workers strike which the health unions will
support.

*The consultants are refusing to re-negogtiate salaries and this is being
buried by the gutterpress behind the nurses strike.

*The junior doctors of Ireland are the only ones in the EU who have to
a 60-70 hour week.
Worst Minister for health ever
Worst Minister for health ever



The health system has been deliberately crumbled and a two-tier
system of non professional HSE workers (who do not negoatiate
salary) are 'in charge'.

Two things :-

SIPTU have failed to support the fractured health service and are aware of:

1. The amalgamation of hospitals to facilitate private profiteering; and the non
professional bodies who will benefit from privatisation- including church organisations.
2.SIPTU are welcoming mary harney to their nurses conference in direct contradiction of
the principles of Solidarity and are therefore scabs.

Bertie Ahern has kept out of this- did anyone notice?

In PD terms the Minister for Justice is facing rebellion from both Judges and
Barristers on his overhaul of the criminal Justice system.

The information regarding iMPACT and Junior doctors is verifiable at source.

The state has abdicated care of the individual in a relentless seeking of
profit and People , especially effected by the amalgamations:
Cavan/Monaghan/ Our Lady's in Crumlin/St Lukes should be aware
of how the state has let down a generation. The amalgamations
are principally about the ability of private enterprise to attract drug
companies and high-end consultancies and not about patient care.

The failure of Government policy in health care is one of the deepest
betrayals of this generation.
