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.

Dear Steven,
I do not know who you are or who you represent, but where did this sentence come from "and for that matter the people of Gaza and their blockade of Gaza".
What does blockade of Gaza have to do with few Egyptians in Ireland demonstrating to show their Solidarity with other Egyptian People in Egypt?
Please do not highjak our peaceful demonstration of solidarity to serve your cause.
Thank you

This isn't about hijacking a peaceful protest , Mr Mohammed el Masry. Egyptian demonstrators and Egyptians living abroad have called for international support . They have been using social networking sites to encourage people all over the world to attend protests outside embassies.

Steven is referring to the role the Mubarak regime has played in policing the blockade of Gaza at the besieged Palestinian territory’s southern border at Rafah.

Dear Muhammed,

The "cause" of ending the collective punishment of the over 1.5 million Palestinians imprisoned in Gaza, and organising against the Occupation, is not only the right, but the responsibility of people all over the world, particularly Arabs. There are demonstrations of support for today's demos in Egypt throughout the Arab world, and if you fail to see the connection between Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Algeria, Palestine etc then I think you are buying into exclusive mentality which has corrupted not only the Egyptian regime, but also parts of her society, for too long.. And if you fail to feel solidarity for the people of Gaza and recognise the role of the Egyptian government in upholding an illegal and immoral siege, then I think that you are missing the point, power and beauty of the mobilisations that are finally beginning to take place in the Arab world- which has been asleep for far too long.. People will be at Ballsbridge today to support the brave people across the Arab world that are taking to the streets and their vision of freedom and unity that goes beyond the confines of sectarianism and national borders, and I think suggestions of "hijacking" aimed at those who will come today in good will and with admiration for and solidarity with those in Egypt under attack today, is both unfair and divisive.. In Spanish they say "el pueblo unido, jamas sera vencido"- the people, united, will never be defeated.. Let's try and live that ethos- in action and spirit- a bit more, ya rafik :)

I spent an hour at the protest this afternoon. All that time there was no bad will whatsoever between the Irish and Arab demonstrators .Everything was perfectly peaceful all the time I was there. I would estimate between a hundred and fifty and two hundred people were present - hopefully someone will put up some photos.

The organisers helpfully translated speeches into English . They thanked everybody for coming along and said that there would be another protest there tomorrow at 12 noon. A big cheer went up when it was announced that Alexandria had fallen to the demonstrators and that units of the army had swapped sides to join the protests . Speakers warned that the situation was still very dangerous and that the government had imposed a curfew for tonight.

Would someone be able to do a similar post to Steven's confirming this?

A number of people asked me if it is going ahead but can't find any confirmation. If we could get a post to link to that would be great.

This Dublin demo coincides with the big marches planned for Cairo and Alexandra today where up to a million people are expected . Thousands have already gathered in Tahrir Square , Cairo . The regime has shut down all roads and public transportation to Cairo,according to reports . Train services nationwide have been suspended for a second day and all bus services between cities halted.

Despite the Egyptian army pledging not to fire on demonstrators , protestors’ demands that Mubarak should not only be removed from office but also put on trial have increased the prospects of a violent response from the regime according to the Wall Street Journal this morning .

Much has been made of the army representing the whole of Egypt , but the army like the rest of Egyptian society is divided : between its elite officer corps and young conscript soldiers who mostly come from poor families . The dilemma the regime faces is whether it can count on these conscripts to face down an uprising which is now taking on revolutionary dimensions.
