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.

lame post really now! go back to taking glamour shots of rbb
In the last 4 years, Irish fishing companies have breached agreed European policies on the size of the fleet, and over-fished stock from the West African Atlantic, despite having 250 million "acres" of coastal water of our own.
The largest freezer trawler in the world is Irish owned, the MV Altantic Dawn.
The current issue of Marine Times tells us that ["Marine Minister, Pat the Cope Gallagher T.D., on a visit to Howth Harbour, launched the De-Commissioning Scheme for Irish Fishing Vessels in the Whitefish and Shellfish Sectors, approved by the Government in July. This programme, the most extensive ever announced by the Irish Government, provides €45 million in funding and will remove up to about 25% of the older, larger and more active vessels in the whitefish sector and also remove excess capacity in the scallops fleet. The programme is based on the recommendations contained in the “Decommissioning Requirements for Ireland’s Demersal and Shellfish Fleets” produced by Padraic White in July."]

The Fishering theme doesn't appear often on imc ireland, generally only occassional mention is made of the shameful fact that Irish families enjoy fish fingers caught in African water. But the Africans would probably only eat them instead.

the largest freezer trawler in the world. Locating fish by satelite for the 4x4 family.
to fish? they are living, breathing, feeling creatures and fishing is a barbaric practice that has no place in the modern world. people serenely sitting on the bank of a river whilst their hooks pierce the cheeks of the animals underneath. certain societies may be still be structurally dependent on fish for nutrition, but that can't be said of the majority of the (over)developed west. causing uneccessary suffering to other beings should be avoided wherever possible. in years to come, i feel we will look at the current treatment of nunhuman animals in the same way we look at slavery - not that i'm trying to equate the two in any facile way, but they both stem from the same unwillingness to treat other beings as we wish to be treated ourselves.
because they'll be our pals.
when the cows come home.
happy hallowe'en.
happy hallowe'en to all sensient beings. Don't worry you'll forget soon enough.
