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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4In our city the walls of the ghettoes are built to keep the poor out, they have
bricks and cameras, they have infra-red facilities. Most middle-class areas
have big iron sliding gates which are equipped with a digital code box
for access. Which is kind of stupid because the gates are usually higher
than the walls (planning permissions).
The people in these houses, use helpers and most of the child -care
people are from other cultures, it's cheaper than family, community care.
Thats if they see their kids during the day at all. A lot of those women are
separated from their own children and you see them sending money in the
post-offices, or giggling and crying in the phone -bureaus.
A house down the road, was in flats, there was a whole community of young
fillipino nurses who brought their many little ones all over at Halloween, the house
was sold four a few million and is being re-furbished for a single family. skips
outside and some amount of friendly laughter gone from the neighbourhood.
Another family (hindu) were priced out of the market a couple of years ago; and ended up
in a hostel- one room at Park-Gate street, mum had to be out all day and travel to sandymount
to bring her three kids to school. This went on 18 months, more. she sat in a park, rain or sun
waiting for the kids to come out of school, (hours) and then took two buses back to a homeless
hostel. They were re-housed. The kids are doing well, but the property value and high rent
was the crucial thing to the landlord.
In this country then, the wall, works in a different way-
The community spaces are open on the other side of the rich-line, but they
are being sold off and developed for the rich too. So we may not be too far away
from the Italian afterall.
has vox pops from the relieved neighbours of the "troublesome complex".
Oh yes proper order................. I can walk home now in safety..........the poliss have their work cut out for them............I'm glad they were thoughtful enough to include the methadone centre inside the perimeter.........never liked foreigners myself...............don't know why they come................& why on earth do they turn on to drugs here?
= the little microcosom of Paduva.
= ghetto-isation.
On Tuesday last 11 tunisians, 9 moroccans, 3 algerians, 1 lebanese and 1 syrian were removed from the estate and processed for deportation.
the same day (14th of August) residents of the locality published thier intention to write to the president of the Italian republic drawing parallels with the Berlin wall & demanding better solutions to urban deprivation, acquistive crime and hard drugs than barbed wire.

I'll let you know how they get on.
Its not the Berlin Wall that i'm reminded of. it brings to mind the Jewish ghetto in WW II Warsaw. The "different" ones are locked into this ghetto and can be extracted whenever the authorities choose.
