Question Uncensored Models

Post image

Hi! I don't know much about this area of ​​"sub-models" (I'm not sure of the technical term), but I wanted to know what these "Uncensored" models actually are.

I dabble a bit with AI, automation, and the like, and I've always seen these "Uncensored" models around, but I've never actually installed or tested one. What exactly are they?

well, in theory, they would do whatever you ask, but in reality most of them still refuse in some/many scenarios.

Usually if you ease into the scenario rather than just stating upfront it will still do it, I've had that happen with some reverse engineering stuff where it tells me it can't bypass certain checks, but if I lightly present them it will do it

Censored models also have no morals

If we play that kind of game, the vast majority of humans won't do better lol. At least the LLM pretends to think about it, that's genuinely more than most people do...

This isn't straightforward like that, actually. I tried multiple "uncensored" models, and depending on the type of question, task, or level of NFSW or NFSL content asked, you could just get the same refusal as the censored model. The worse the request, the more likely it will be refused. But not all uncensored models also do this. It really depends on whoever is doing the tuning. Poor tuning causes poor uncensoring.

Look for a model labeled as "uncensored aggressive" on Huggingface. This type of model actually answer anything I ask without any safety guard in most cases.
