UCC has paid huge sums to a criminal professor

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.

The Judiciary - An Ordinary Person's Perspective

category dublin | crime and justice | opinion/analysis author Friday November 16, 2012 07:08author by Carolyn Lambert - Indy Authorauthor email CarolynALambert at hotmail dot com Report this post to the editors

A Memoir based in Dublin, Ireland

This is the memoir of an Ordinary Person. A memoir that:
spans from December 2006 to May 2011;
describes the author's struggle against an "alleged" constructive dismissal by one of Ireland's leading law firms;
tells of the author's challenge to the Employment Appeals Tribunal to remain impartial;
outlines the author's application to the Legal Aid Board to provide assistance;
questions the validity of the Courts' Customer Service Strategic Plan, the internal systems and the treatment of people who cannot afford legal counsel; and
gives an account of the author's challenge to the Law Courts when she self-represented agains the Firm.

It is the story of a system that is protected by self-regulation and the separation of powers and which has thrived because of the unwritten Code of Practice.

It is the story of The Judiciary - An Ordinary Person's Perspective.

The book is available through Amazon in the US and will be available through Amazon UK on 2nd December. It is a story that needs to be told.

The copyright of this book is protected.

Congratulations I look forward to purchasing it.

The silence and non analysis of this area screams out for justice and the disinfectant of sunlight ie publicity

Thanks so much, Mick. It was a tough book to produce, and an even tougher one to get into print. I tried to get Irish self-publishers to print it for me, but they all decided they were too frightened to get sued. The fear the Judiciary has put on ordinary people needs to be recognised. The story is a real life story, and I hope when you read it, you will send me your comments. I am looking forward to hearing them.

Love to hear your comments, guys. I have had a lot of reviews from non-Irish people, and the Irish people who have read it have told me that it's "very Irish". Would love to hear more, though.

Thanks so much. Carolyn Lambert

"And, in a more general way, so much for all the hypocrisy and corruption which underlies the outward appearances -- and the empty words -- of the most senior members of the legal and medical professions of the Republic of Ireland."

The above excerpt is from the Indymedia (Ireland) comment at:
http://www.indymedia.ie/article/102060#comment296535

=== === ===

"With specific reference to the almost UNBELIEVABLE lack of Government Accountability in the Republic of Ireland ..."

The excerpt just above is from the following Human Rights Ireland www page address:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/ChiefJusticeSusanDenh...ppeal

The word "Government" in the paragraph immediately above is meant to include all three of the main branches of the Republic of Ireland's Government (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial): and particularly the JUDICIAL BRANCH, in connection with the crucially important matter of it ensuring the responsible enforcement and upholding -- AT ALL TIMES -- of Article 6.1 of Bunreacht na hEireann, which is the legal principle that lays at the very heart of the SUPREME LAW of the REPUBLIC of Ireland.

The words of Article 6.1 of Bunreacht na hEireann (the Constitution of the Republic of Ireland) read as follows (in full):

"ALL powers of government, legislative, executive and judicial, derive, under God, from THE PEOPLE, whose right it is to designate the rulers of the State and, in FINAL appeal, to decide ALL questions of NATIONAL POLICY, according to the requirements of the COMMON GOOD."

EPILOGUE

"Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray ... that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."
