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.

Congratulations and well done on launching Indymedia Ireland! We really did need an Irish IMC instead of relying on IMC UK good and all as it was and still is. Keep up the good work!

this is not a bulletin board.
editors delete.
go right back to the beginning of the newswire and rationalise about 60% of your content.
and breach indymedia global charter in the process.

has often been attempted in not only Ireland but also Poland and Cyprus, and if I am not wrong the above Paul knew something about a former Irish campaign which foolishly included irish american citizens.
In the leadup to the EU constitution and the altering of nationality/residency tests for citizens throughout Europe the working conditions of Irish citizens abroad and the conditions that today's youth may expect abroad are changing.

which as been removed by one of the editors for "not being news" as "not being a bulletin board".
Tomorrow the votes and "non-votes" of all registered as being born in the constituency of Catalonia will be counted.
CNT the anarcho-syndicalist union has issued a restatement of it's policy held since the 1st international in 1864 which is well known.
http://barcelona.indymedia.org/newswire/display/59724/index.php

I live in a neighbourhood where the majority of people have no right to vote, either in this constituency or that of their home. They are indeed economic migrants, and every week they send a large section of their economic power through the money exchange system to third world countries.

Their rights to nationality in Europe, their future rights to enfranchisement in Europe are subject to many threats not least the continuing inequalities in democratic participation in the present European member states and more worryingly in the future members.

If we are to move to any "legitimisation" of democracy and elections we _must_ have a means of registering the "non-vote".

Ireland has been left behind by many who have not found registration in other European states, and it would often be innapropriate for them to seek such, as they are amongst the most "migrant" of European peoples preferring to move on average every three years from one country to another.

The relationship of Ireland to it's disenfranchised belies more of the reasons why so many wish leave, than any hope that they might have to return.

If a reader would like to read the 1864 1st International statement on Voting and Anarchism
it is reproduced with succint comment for our times (from radio Kaos) at this address
http://barcelona.indymedia.org/newswire/display/59724/index.php
it's written in Catalan the traditional tongue of anarcho-syndicalism.
You will find a translation to Spanish the traditional tongue of Zapatism at the CNT website.


the moment all the "non-votes" are counted or acknowledged then democracy shall lose all credibility it has. Perhaps that is not newsworthy.
