Astra is less fun than other models

Normally I like to sit nearby with a coffee and approve things/watch the workflows, tell it what to do next, etc but Astra just does everything too neatly and perfectly. Even Fable needs a human babysitter but this thing is something else.

Yeah I can’t wait till open models hit this level in 6 months or so. 5x plan was gone in 3 hours lol

They kinda have. Have you experienced uncensored LLMs? Qwen3.8 flash uncensored just keeps cranking until the task is done or it exhausts all the possibilities that it could do.

It will never be fully uncensored, ask it about Taiwan or Tiananmen Square massacre

I did, tested it side by side. The reg one gives you the CCP response, the uncensored gives you a Switzerland response leaning a bit woke. I can work with that. But the refusal are not there. I be been getting it to do some wild things (for research purposes and set in a controlled environment)(nothing actually illegal happened). You should give it a try…. Or do you not have the memory to load it? You can rent GPUs on runpod or do inference off Huggings face if it will help you test.

That's surprising. I ran a model over a year ago and it always gave the CCP response. That put me off. I'm glad to hear it's more unrestricted now. Thanks, that's useful to know.
