offsite link Fraud and mismanagement at University College Cork Thu Aug 28, 2025 18:30 | Calli Morganite
UCC has paid huge sums to a criminal professor
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.

never mind monty python- WARLORDS OF PEZ leave them for dead

category dublin | arts and media | opinion/analysis author Monday December 01, 2003 20:20author by dunk - FUSPEYauthor email duncancrowley at hotmail dot com Report this post to the editors

the warlords of pez played about 20 songs in an hour at the village on saturday and it rocked.

pure madness- brilliant, the most refreshing, funny gig in a long time, possibly ever??
warlords of pez- soon to be rulers of the world- be very afraid
warlords of pez- soon to be rulers of the world- be very afraid

to begin a bloke in a white doctors overalls gave out flyers for the "sexy mass to resurrect deepspace donkeybite" he was the band mameber they "murdered at halloween because he was "such an annoying prick to hang around with"

the responsorial psalm was

get up owra dat deepspace
lest you may rock us again
get up owra dat deepaspace
we know you`re only coddin`

7 blokes, all in masks- giraffe, piggy....., pez red triangles- ???

other classics from the night were, FIB (full irish breakfast), do the zombie, derek davis, and the classic -padre pio.

you can watch this one free on their website
http://www.warlordsofpez.com/video/bigwebpio.html
it explains why the red and white pigeon towers (the focal point of dublin?) are there

the burning question is - will they take over the world with their music madness- and if so what kind of world will we live in then

part of imc-oxford collective to imc-dalek

imc in general could expand, that was one of the main driving forces behind imc-ox, who worked with undercurrents.
ie get more people invovled and using this resourse.

not news- news is whatever you want or are into- depends on way you present it perhaps?

who uses imc at present
more importantly who does not

ie
http://www.indymedia.ie/newswire.php?story_id=62435

despite many attemts to find out more, get more people invovled, etc
imc still slow on uptake

is it a clique??

if people believe in whatever stuff they are into- great
but really trying to be as effective as possible matters

imc could do more
im not sure why it/ you are so closed at present

perhaps im a bit impatient.?

You are posting about one of your favourite bands doing a gig. Its not connected in any way whatsoever with any news item. Is it OK if I put up an Iron Maiden review after tonight's gig in the Point please?

There are loads of music sites around for this stuff to be posted on. Go to the boards.ie music board or one of many yahoo groups to discuss it there.

Its very difficult to get people involved unless they genuinely want to. Lots of people have come to meetings over the (two) years and drifted away simply because they just werent into it. Which is fair enough. Its not a "clique", it never has been and never will be, pretty much anyone if they decide can become an editor if they do a small bit of work and help.

Do you really have to share your night-out experiences with us?

I think the sultans are shite. Self-indulgent, dressing up and playing with your mates, like a bad pantomime - load of toss.

Also, please stop lecturing people on Indymedia. It's the worst way to get people involved.
