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.

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

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.

An Anarchist FAQ updated

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday June 27, 2002 09:26author by anarchoauthor email anarcho at geocities dot com Report this post to the editors

An Anarchist FAQ has been updated to version 9.7. Lots of new material.

"An Anarchist FAQ" webpage has been updated. It can be found at:

http://www.anarchistfaq.org/
http://www.anarchismfaq.org/
http://www.anarchyfaq.org/
http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/1931/

An Anarchist FAQ is an in depth introduction to anarchist
ideas, ideals and history. Find out why anarchism is
opposed to hierarchy, state and capitalism. Find out what
different types of anarchism there is and why it is also
called libertarian socialism. Find out why anarchists oppose
thepresent system and what they aim to replace it with.

It has been updated on June 27th to mark the birth
of Emma Goldman, famous anarchist and feminist
writer.

After becoming an anarchist after the Haymarket events,
she quickly became the most famous anarchist in America.
Expelled from "the land of the free" for seeking true freedom,
she was deported to Bolshevik Russia where she saw the
revolution at first hand. She quickly came to the conclusion
that the Bolsheviks were crushing the revolution in favour of
party dictatorship. After trying to help imprisoned anarchists,
she finally leaves the country convinced that Lenin's USSR
was not remotely socialist. With the outbreak of the Spanish
Revolution in 1936 she wholeheartedly works to help the
Spanish Anarchists while opposing their compromises
in the struggle against fascism.

In addition, visit the updated FAQ links page with over
750 links to anarchist webpages, organisations, papers,
magazine, books, publishers and so on as well as many
non-anarchist but related sites of interest. This can
be found at:

http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/1931/links.html
http://www.infoshop.org/faq/links.html

The best one-stop place to discover the anarchist community
on line.

yours in solidarity

Anarcho

*****************************************

their position on "workers' control." Plus lots more.

Section H.8
../http:/www.infoshop.org/faq/secH8.html
http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/1931/secH8.html

centralist." Plus lots more.

This is of absolutely no importance what so ever. Please publish some real news and make this newswire interesting.

Hey Mr X.

If you want news, YOU publish a story. That's
what indymedia is all about after all.

Anyway, any update to the Anarchist FAQ is
good news for me at least.

Yes, the FAQ is a fantastic resource; but the problem is, if every time there is an update to the website, and a newswire article is published, those articles would cross from being news to being a regular advertisement.

Furthermore, if every similar site were to have such messages each time new content was added, on a purely practical level, the newswire could collapse under the weight of updates!

Again, I don't mean to take away from how good and how useful this website is - but there's sometimes a clash between not interfering with content and providing for a wide range of stories to come forward without being drowned out.

Advertisements like this are in my opinion OK from time to time, as they're obviously not plugging a product or commercial service. It helps Indymedia, again in my opinion, if those who would publicise their websites could show some restraint in their use of this newswire for that purpose, designed, maintained and promoted by other activists.

At least they publish the URL. There are organizations (SWP/GR)that publish the full version of their weekly bulletins.

The anarchists are so cute! Their ideology is as fanciful as that of the Legion of Mary, but they still want everyone to know all about it.
There must be some sort of missionary impulse in Western culture.

"This is of absolutely no importance what so ever. Please publish some real news and make this newswire interesting."

Given that people have posted articles about many subjects, none of which is news, I find this funny...

Anyways, as regards the question of whether any update to a webpage is news, I think its a question of whether it is a sizeable update or not.

In my defence, I would say that the addition of
two new sections to a large and well respected resource *is* news -- and many people would want to hear it. Minor updates are probably not news. And as the FAQ is generally updated once every few months, I hope people will see why I posted.

No objection to such postings, that is until the revolution when all anarchists will be detained by state security, (an bord stasi) especially phuq head, anarcho and fgod.

Exactly my point, anarcho. I also think that web readers are more likely to pay attention to well-spaced announcements than the type of spamming that other sites engage in.
