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.

This is a hypocritical disgrace.. The herald love to run stories like this so get the pictures in there and make a mockery of the corrupted DCC..

Crap photos. One DCC-endorsed poster (under "2002") ... and that's it?

No evidence of who put the poster up?

Did you report it to the DCC...? I'm guessing no.

They're taken by 'Jim', no idea who this is.

Don't know who posted these pics but some of the photos were taken along dame street.

These DCC posters are on nearly every pay and display parking contraption around the city centre, many of them are poorly pasted up.

DCC should have hired some anarchists to paste them up, some posters from over 2years ago are still hanging around town.

Sorry Jim about getting your name wrong -excellent pics all the same. I was thinking it would be good if you could get the location of the sites where DCC were postering onto Indymedia for use by the defence in any future cases brought against activists under the littering law.
I know a couple of people who are facing charges - this might help them. One of these activists is a member of a political party whose central committee has issued a strict edict against using indymedia in any way ,so i doubt if the photos would be of much use to him. As far as I know the other person involved has not to date received the kiss of death from this political party though .
I notice the posters in the pics are prominently advertising a protest on Jan 9 . This demo is featured in the event section -posted there by a fellow by the name of Rory . It should be supported by everybody .

i note a piece of information in this comments which is directly in the interest of indymedia to know-

Which political party's central committee has issued a strict edict against using indymedia in any way?

I can't wait to find out. is it the PDs? or FF? or perhaps the petulant ógras of FG? Maybe its the shinners and just a whole load of hopeful impersonators have been taking the piss the last year? It could be the swp as well you know, they're said to be very into the edicts! Which political party takes us seriously enough to issue an edict? END THE EDICT! we shall not be edicted. we'll go international solidarity on this one.
Edicts one day, evictions and black lists the next!
Will this party ever gain power (if not the actual and present regime)? Are we subject to surveillance to enforce the edict? has anyone been stripped of their constituency selection because of breaking the edict?

If you read the post it strongly insinuates which party is might be, but perhaps you could just ask rory what he thinks?

I can't think of a political party which has anything called a "central commitee", but whoever they are, their members obviously need our help.

I propose to broaden this campaign into a genuine campaign for free speech by adding the ending on the ban on members of this party using indymedia.ie to the demands.

Our first step should be identyfing this political party. If necessary this should be brought up at the meeting in January.

a dirty bunch of hypocrites aren't they jim? A strict policy against posting ,but ,when they want to publicize one of their own events, they do not hesitate to post.
