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. The Saker >>

Eoghan Harris & The Grand Old OIRA
 national |
history and heritage |
opinion/analysis
 Sunday March 11, 2012 13:21 by Ex-Corkman
Eoghan Harris regularly rants about terrorism both real and imaginary. While he still checks under his bed for Trots his main fear is that we are in a Weimar Republic stage and Sinn Fein are on the verge of seizing power. He fails to notice that his beloved Blueshirts are the one party in Ireland with a Fascist past.
 Star Commander Harris : Sir Anthony! Theres nae sign of intelligent life! Now Bomber Harris has sometimes given convoluted explanations on how he moved from being an old guard Stalinist to a Neo-Con (the emphasis being on con) but he has been somewhat reticent to speak about the actions the Official IRA carried out while he was a member of SF, OSF, SFWP and the WP.
To help start off this debate I will itemise some actions of the OIRA. Perhaps Bomber Harris might explain why he didn't condemn these "terrorist" acts at the time?
NB: this not an attack on the OIRA or the memory of Joe McCann, it is intended to expose the hypocrisy of Eoghan Harris.
Anyway here we go:
12 December 1971 John Barnhill (65) Protestant
Status: Civilian Political Activist (CivPA), Killed by: Official Irish Republican Army (OIRA)
Ulster Unionist Stormont Senator. Shot during bomb attack on his home, Brickfield House, near Strabane, County Tyrone.
22 February 1972 Gerry Weston (38) nfNIB
Status: British Army (BA), Killed by: Official Irish Republican Army (OIRA)
Catholic chaplain to British Army. Killed in bomb attack on British Army (BA) base, Aldershot, England.
22 February 1972 Joan Lunn (39) nfNIB
Status: Civilian (Civ), Killed by: Official Irish Republican Army (OIRA)
Killed in bomb attack on British Army (BA) base, Aldershot, England. Civilian employed at the British Army (BA) base.
22 February 1972 Cherie Munton (20) nfNIB
Status: Civilian (Civ), Killed by: Official Irish Republican Army (OIRA)
Killed in bomb attack on British Army (BA) base, Aldershot, England. Civilian employed at the British Army (BA) base.
22 February 1972 Thelma Bosley (44) nfNIB

Killed in bomb attack on British Army (BA) base, Aldershot, England. Civilian employed at the British Army (BA) base.
22 February 1972 Margaret Grant (32) nfNIB

Killed in bomb attack on British Army (BA) base, Aldershot, England. Civilian employed at the British Army (BA) base.
22 February 1972 John Haslar (58) nfNIB
Status: Civilian (Civ), Killed by: Official Irish Republican Army (OIRA)
Killed in bomb attack on British Army (BA) base, Aldershot, England. Civilian employed at the British Army (BA) base.
22 February 1972 Jill Mansfield (34) nfNIB
Status: Civilian (Civ), Killed by: Official Irish Republican Army (OIRA)
Killed in bomb attack on British Army (BA) base, Aldershot, England. Civilian employed at the British Army (BA) base.
04 March 1972 Marcus McCausland (39) Catholic
Status: ex-Ulster Defence Regiment (xUDR), Killed by: Official Irish Republican Army (OIRA)
Found shot, by the side of Braehead Road, Derry.
21 May 1972 William Best (19) Catholic

On leave. Found shot, William Street, Derry.
This will do for a start. Hopefully Mr Harris will respond.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8Eoghan Harris is in favour of bombing when it results in the mass murder of German civilians as in Dresden in 1945. No love for the working class on this occasion, they were guilty one and all. But thats not enough, Bomber Harris manages to continue his attack on those who question his lies about the War of Independence: those who question him are the same as neo nazis. Oh, and they support David Irving as well of course.
It used to be that you were a provo, provo trot or provo hushpuppy if you disagreed with Eoghan Harris. No more! Now you are a neo nazi or/and Irving fan if you dare to question Eoghan Harris.

Yesterday this article came up on page one if you googled Eoghan Harris. Now it doesn't come up at all. You have to google the full title to find it.
Funny that.
How regal is that portrait of Gen. Harris above. There is an uncanny resemblance to some photos (not photoshopped) of the late Gen. Pinochet of the democratic republic of Chile. Could these two people be related?

Well the two articles about Eoghan Harris are back. You now get them when you google Eoghan Harris. Funny that they were gone for a while. Maybe Eoghan Harris madea complaint and they were taken down for a while and restored when it was realised that as usual Eoghan Harris was talking shite.
Now Eoghan Harris now wants the DG of RTE and the Chair of the RTE Authority sacked because they are sheltering provo hush-puppies who have put Eoghan Harris on a blacklist to keep him off RTE!

This is the article. Read it and weep. With laughter.
Yep, still in denial. He writes the script for how MM should have answered Dobson. Bertie is innocent. the FF minsters were correct to attack the Tribunal.
The real hubris if not madness of Eoghan Harris is exposed by these words he puts in Michael Martins mouth in the invented conversation:
Micheal Martin: Actually it goes back further. All the way back to before the Arms Trial when Charles Haughey was a rising star and the source of corruption. As far back as 1967 the Seven Days team of Eoghan Harris, Dick Hill and Lelia Doolan were doing almost weekly exposes of planning abuses by the Fianna Fail fundraising group called TACA. All the abusers of planning were great nationalists, if not patriots."
