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.

Indymedia centre visit yesterday and today

category dublin | arts and media | opinion/analysis author Saturday April 24, 2004 21:25author by Eoin Dubsky Report this post to the editors

You will see photos from the Indymedia centre elsewhere on this site, but you have to see it to believe it yourself. The place is beaming with energy and supportive, DIY media culture. Workshops, screenings, photo exhibits, literature and free software abound.

The Centre has space for far more people than were there yesterday and today. Still everyone got together for the screenings, spread out for chatting and networking, and got into groups again for workshops in media and technology.

I'm typing this message running the free GNU/Linux CD which the Irish Free Software Organisation (IFSO) folks kindly gave me before I left today. Free Software! No software patents! Woohoo! :-)

The Undercurrents video last night, and JD's screening today, were a brilliant mix of news from struggles and actions, parodies and some official corporate videos which could just as well have been parodies as well.

Anyone who can make it to Dublin in the coming days and has any interest at all in alternative media and people's struggles can't miss this.

Bit disappointing turnout? Was expecting hordes of people there for last night's video and today's forum with VB.

Needs to be pushed more on the website. Front page news every day.

Cead Mile Failte % for the brilliant efforts put in and right in the heart of the historical location of Revolutionary Socialism in Ireland.
Get and see that video, someone has a sublime sense of humour. George Bush and Tony Blair have a much better voice than the Voicelessish Party

We have no funding apart from the subscription fees of a small number of people who have paid to join the support group. We are also charging a 2 euro membership fee for the 10 day festival. Apart from that everything has been donated or loaned, from an awful lot of labour, to 300 chairs, tablies, computers, cinema screen... There is a lot of goodwill out there for indymedia.
