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.

The organisers of the mayday march and carnival met today with representatives of the Gardai in Pearse st.

The Another Europe is Possible delegation, which included Patricia McKenna (MEP Green Party), Mick O Reilly (ATGWU), Richard Boyd Barrett (Irish Anti War Movement) and Rory Hearne (Convenor Another Europe is Possible), outlined their plans to march from Dame St to Phoenix Pk where the carnival would take place.
However, the Gardai informed them that the Phoenix Pk would be closed on the day and that the march would be stopped at some point along the quays.

Press Release – Gardai want to restrict right to March on May Day

The organisers of the mayday march and carnival met today with representatives of the Gardai in Pearse st.

The Another Europe is Possible delegation, which included Patricia McKenna (MEP Green Party), Mick O Reilly (ATGWU), Richard Boyd Barrett (Irish Anti War Movement) and Rory Hearne (Convenor Another Europe is Possible), outlined their plans to march from Dame St to Phoenix Pk where the carnival would take place.
However, the Gardai informed them that the Phoenix Pk would be closed on the day and that the march would be stopped at some point along the quays.

“We feel that the closing of the public space of Phoenix Park on Mayday is an outrageous infringement of civil liberties and we are going to contact the assistant Garda Commissioner to demand our right to hold the carnival as planned and advertised, in Phoenix Park” said Rory Hearne. “We expressed our view that the police plans for the day are completely over the top. The reality is that there is no evidence what so ever of any violence.”

Mick O Reilly and Patricia Mc Kenna expressed their surprise and shock that the public space would be shut and they joined the appeal for resrictions on the carnival to be lifted.

Grave concern was expressed at the enormous cost of this completely unnecessary and over the top police operation to the taxpayer when clear assurances have been given that the protests will be entirely peaceful.

Richard Boyd Barrett of the Irish Anti War Movement added: “The hype around the Mayday protests smacks of the methods of George Bush. This is beginning to look like the deception of Weapons of Mass Destruction – a ficitional threat was used to justify a murderous war in Iraq and now we have the Irish Government and the Police creating a fictional threat as a way of curbing the right to protest and undermining basic civil liberties. We believe that the main aim of the hysteria that has been generated by the Gardai around the Mayday protests, is to justify draconian police methods around the visit of George Bush and to discourage the public form participating in those protests.”

As a simple lowly Garda looking forward to a weekend out in Dublin, I want all of you bad naughty doogooders to make the weekend last from Friday until Monday evening very very very late into the night, all because I will make treble time on Sunday and Monday, and a day off in lieu of Bank Holiday Monday.

A PD is of the opinion that May Day "protestors" are guests in Dublin. So why is McDowell preparing to beat up peaceful citizens, with the Gardai and Army?
