UCC has paid huge sums to a criminal professor
This story is not for republication. I bear responsibility for the things I write. I have read the guidelines and understand that I must not write anything untrue, and I won't.
This is a public interest story about a complete failure of governance and management at UCC.

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.

Xmas email sent to all MLAs

Xmas email sent to all MLAs

Below is the full text of an email sent to all MLA's on Christmas day. Sorry I'm putting this up a bit late.

A Christmas Message to all MLA’s

A corrupt and greedy elite rule this country. You know this to be true.

We know that most of you have spent a life time of work to improve the lives of those you represent. We know that you care about your communities, and that you have their best interests at heart.

However you must understand that you have failed.

Your life’s commitment to your country has been in vain because the 1%, made up of bankers, developers, judges and a small but powerful political elite have made real democracy- liberty, equality and fraternity- impossible.

From 2004-2009 male suicide doubled from 12.5 to 24 per 100,000

From 2007-2009 unemployment among 16-24 year olds increased from 9% to 19%

From 2003-2008 the life expectancy gap between males in deprived areas and those not in deprived areas increased from 4.1 yrs to 4.6

From 2000-2010 homelessness increased from 11,000 to 19,000
And while this has happened bankers bonuses have increased 1400% since the crisis began, and there has been massive tax avoidance by the super rich.

We could go on. These figures illustrate the collective failure of those in power. The NI Assembly has escaped judgement on the policies that have caused this by adopting the policies of the Tory/Liberal Coalition and presenting this adoption as forced. You know this to be a false representation of fact. Do you believe that the current political regime can do anything to improve these figures?

Are you willing to remain in a position of power while the lives of the people you represent get worse and worse while the 1% have got richer and richer living on obscene profits.

At what point will you say ‘enough is enough’? At what point will you say you will have nothing more to do with this corrupt state?

The world is changing quickly so it is up to you to draw your line in the sand now, before it is too late. Someday soon you may be asked to answer for your crimes against the people in this country.

At this time of good will Occupy Belfast is willing to forgive and forget your role in these crimes, pending your response. We urge you to make the biggest decision of your life. Have courage and,

Leave your party
Leave your position of power
Defect, and publicly show support for the Global Occupy Movement

And, if you have real courage, join the movement, and use your physical presence as a weapon against that which you know to be wrong.

‘You’d better start swimming or you’ll sink like a stone- because times they are a-changing.’

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 2012 will be biggest year in history, so make sure you are on the right side.
