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 Good Bus website now up and running - please contribute as much as possible!

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday May 08, 2003 14:15author by someone from the Good Bus - the Good Busauthor email thegoodbus at yahoo dot co dot uk Report this post to the editors

Small bit of news - the Good Bus people have erected a website.

OK after the meeting last night (thanks to all who came) I've set up a very, very rough and dirty website for the Good Bus.

Go to the site at

http://www.geocities.com/thegoodbus

As you'll see its a bare bones. But fuck it.

Its just going to be used primarily as a site for information with links to other places. If you have any links you think would be of use to us, then PLEASE get in touch and we will stick a link on the site.

That email address again in case you dont know it: thegoodbus@yahoo.co.uk

The site will be updated constantly in the coming weeks so keep checking back for fresh meat.

Nice one.

Seriously, do you have any bus details yet? With 3 weeks to go are you leading us up the garden path with 'thegoodbus' and the dead links on the website or is there actually a bus? How much? When?

Globalise Resistance have full details of their buses on their website and are running two different trips to the summit one for 3 days and one for five.

But it's time that you began!

To be honest I'm doing exams right now and have not been involved, there's lots of people working on this. But we have a bus sorted and are still looking for cheaper options.

Jeez, we try and do something good for you people and this is the thanks we get.... spas : )

Angela if you're so worried, get in touch and give them a hand organising and fundraising, we're leaving on the 25th.

Cos i can't take off too many...

author by one of the Good Bus peoplepublication date Fri May 09, 2003 00:25author address author phone Report this post to the editors

I dont have the exact dates but I think its roughly leaving on the 26th and coming back on the 4th or 5th, but dont quote me on that.

The reason for the extended trip is to help set up the camps for other groups; to lessen the chances of being stopped at the border; and to take a couple of days to unwind, relax, and come down after a large scale protest.

There are many details that have been worked out but have not yet been put on the site - the site was only raised this morning (after saying they would do it late last night in Conways) by one person so credit where credit is due!

The Good Bus is hoping to cost around $225 or so. That should be a Euro symbol but I cant get it to work for some reason.

Were there any other questions to answer.. should go back and check the post...

A lot of people would be interested in knowing what the whole anti-globalism thing is about. Would make an interesting program.

Leaving 25th May, Back by 6th June. Should give us time to get our bearings, get to know each other and be part of the protest village being built during the run up.

Sorry for the over-reaction there (it's that damn song...) I'm serious though about getting in touch, getting involved, we want everyone who's coming to participate any way they can in helping, is a team effort and should be great : )
