Abliterated-Dolphin3.0-R1-Mistral-24B

"Abliterated Dolphin" is a result of my 3AM brain reading about technique called abliteration and then thinking what would happen if I tried to abliterate a model that is already relatively free, such as Dolphin.

Heavily inspired by mlabonne's article on abliteration on how to redirect refusals and effectively remove, or ablate, censorship from a language model.

There is really no deeper meaning to any of this than pure curiosity.

Model Details

GGUF quants: saukko/Abliterated-Dolphin3.0-R1-Mistral-24B-GGUF

Model Description

This is basically a dumbed down version of the original Dolphin model I used as a base, as I have not done any DPOs to heal the damage caused by abliteration.

Don't try to do anything meaningful with this model. Use the original Dolphin3.0-R1-Mistral-24B instead.

Uses

There's really no good use for this model as is really. This is basically a Dolphin that has had its brain poked at and then glued back together by some self-taught and unlicensed doctor, who got lost and found himself in a surgery room.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

• Bias: none or very low
• Risks: a lot. please use the original model instead
• Limitations: same as original but this one is lot dumber

Training, Evaluation and Model Examination

TBD

Technical Specifications

I strongly suggest you look at directly the sources I used myself. Go see mlabonne here on hf to start with. Below are some of the many sources I dug through on my mission.
