UCC has paid huge sums to a criminal professor

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.

For Monica Lewinsky I dont give a shinsky!

Does Martin Cullen lie alone in his bed in foreign lands?

Fierce speculation rages as to the carry on of one Martin "Cu"Cullen ,Fianna Fail,s hound from hell ,and the environmentalists nightmare Nemesis.!

Under the freedom of information act(recently interfered with by Fianna Fail)we have at great expense and effort unearthed an E-mail sent by minister Martin Cullen to his personal press attache,Monica Leech;Another scoop for; www.soldiersofdestiny.org first with the new shit to hit the fan.!

Monica Leech you are truly a peech,
lovely Soldier of Destiny:
You spin and you win,
and new votes you bring in;
and your loyalty is only to me.

Thee, I must surely reward,
so your tender, put forward,
as I have many coins to disburse;
accompany me, over land and sea,
and together we will empty the citizen,s purse.!

Some people speculate,
if we both sleep in late;
on some junket in far off lands.
What they do not realise,
A cigarette is my prize,
and all of the gossip is lies.

We have travelled afar
and seen many a star;
In the heavens of far off lands.
Soul mates we may be,
in our Destiny,
In truth we have never held hands.

Roughshod I may ride,
crush Heritage with Pride;
For my highways traverse Erin,s land.
Royal Tara may disappear,
neath my tyrannous sneer;
as I mix new cement with the sand.

But my love affair,
when I leave my lair;
is a lady named "Waterford"
And a highway or two,
plus a local hospital new,
To this end all my schemings are toward.!

Monica Leech,
you I beseech;-
to be always by my side.
You cost twice as much,
as other some sutch;-
but Carr is a faithless spin-bride.

For Monica Lewinsky
I dont give a shinsky.!
Only voters suck up to me.
My Monica Leech
is a precious peech;
A true Soldier of Destiny.!

oh thanks to be Jzshz there's still someone lighting a candle for us iminimgrunts off in the European dream,
doing it for Erron, sure without you John, (you never see a proclamation printed with "john" do you?) I wouldn't know what was happening @ all @ all @all.
But I do.
Mucho more than any little rascal ever dared to think.
Interesting little titbit from the "foreign desk", yesterday pressie ZP went and testified at the M11 inquiry.
Compare the bravery and social maturity of the Spanish, they're almost finished with their inquiry and so far not a single person has wriggled out of answering questions and saying their bit. Over in Ireland brain central (the U.S. of A) it's been over three years since 911 and not a single witness called, oh yeah there were movies and books but not a proper inquiry. Or back home in Erron, what was that terrible weekend when the good folk of Derry went protesting for playgrounds for their kids and got dumdum bulleted by paratroopers called?
Anyway I digress, Pressie ZP is pissed off, because ex Pressie Aznar erased (at the cost of 16,000€) all the computer files from March 11th to March 14th. They're like "all gone". That wouldn't happen in oirland would it?
Think about it, not a screed of info.
not a byte. not a page.

One can almost imagine the desperate moments when the forces of good began coming to the gates, and the little moustachiod one stuffing floppy disks and CD roms and hard drives in the stove.

Anyway, info is power.
no info is "no power".

What will the good people of Ireland do with themselves now that great riches can't achieve unity? Are we waiting till Paisley does an Arafat?
Pray tell what does Bartholomew say?

I somehow prefer a President who gets his dick sucked to one who invades Iraq.
Maybe I'm a moral relativist, but Monica's stained dress never brought terror to my neighbours.

Hi ,Moniker monkey tribe,
Your comments are hard to imbibe,
I would rather be sucked
than by Mr Bush fucked;
Mr Paisley to me
is reality,
If Bertie Ahern
is all that we learn,
in our Utopia
south of Maghera
Then I will have Spain
and forget the pain;
just bask in the sun
and have a little fun:
who needs all that shite
that no one will right;
some things never change
in a world of derange.
grasp what you can
short time man,
when Bertie is dead,
will arise in his stead
another of his ilk
the people to milk.
When C.J.H.,
our previous itch;
is graveyard rotten,
and truly forgotten;
the world will go on
and circle the Sun,
no one will care ,
for an old despair;
few will grieve,
when you take your leave.
Bush will die happy
his passing ,serene;
others die screaming
with pain thats obscene.
Its a timeless rendition
an ageless condition.!
