About this model

failspy's refusal-modified derivative of meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct, released as bfloat16 safetensors weights under the llama3 license. The creator describes the change as orthogonalizing out the strongest refusal directions from the original instruct model, a technique they call abliteration, rather than fine-tuning. According to the model card, the goal is to inhibit refusal expression while keeping other behavior unchanged, but the creator warns that refusal is not guaranteed to be removed and the model may still lecture about ethics or safety. The creator also says this v3 methodology seems to have induced fewer hallucinations than earlier versions, and asks users to report quirks. These behavior claims have not been independently tested here.

What changed

Model types are creator-reported, not independently tested. These labels describe source metadata, not a guarantee of behavior.

  • abliteratedmodel name: Llama-3-70B-Instruct-abliterated-v3

Family evidence

These groupings are source-reported. Explicit base identifiers take priority over generic architecture tags.

Tools to customize it further

Remove more refusals

  • Heretic ↗ ★ 36,365

    Removes refusal behavior from transformer models automatically. It pairs directional ablation (abliteration) with an Optuna parameter search that tries to cut refusals while keeping the model close to the original, so you don't have to pick layers by hand.

  • OBLITERATUS ↗ ★ 8,941

    A larger refusal-removal toolkit with several abliteration methods, usable locally or through a hosted Hugging Face Space. Check the telemetry setting before you run it: the README describes telemetry as opt-in, but on by default in the Spaces version.

Fine-tune it on your own data

  • Unsloth ↗ ★ 78,505

    A desktop app and Python library for running and training models locally. Its README lists LoRA, QLoRA, full fine-tuning, DPO and GRPO, plus export to formats including GGUF, on Windows, Linux, WSL and macOS.

  • LlamaFactory ↗ ★ 75,708

    Fine-tunes more than 100 language and vision-language models from a command line or a browser-based Web UI, aimed at training without writing code.

Make a smaller download (quantize)

  • llama.cpp ↗ ★ 132,209

    Runs models locally and includes the tools behind most GGUF files. A conversion script turns Hugging Face weights into GGUF, and llama-quantize shrinks a high-precision GGUF to lower-bit formats, which can cost some accuracy.

  • MLX LM ↗ ★ 7,461

    Apple's MLX package for running and fine-tuning models on Apple silicon. It can quantize models and upload them to the Hugging Face Hub, and supports LoRA and full fine-tuning.

Merge it with another model

  • mergekit ↗ ★ 7,414

    Merges pretrained models with many merge methods. It works out-of-core, so merges can run on a CPU or with as little as 8 GB of VRAM, and it also handles LoRA extraction and mixture-of-experts merges.

Learn the techniques

  • LLM Course ↗ ★ 84,653

    A free course with roadmaps and Colab notebooks. Its notebooks include one-click tools for merging with MergeKit, quantizing to GGUF, GPTQ, EXL2, AWQ and HQQ, and automatic abliteration with custom datasets.

Source-card excerpt

Source model card excerpt: Llama-3-70B-Instruct-abliterated-v3 Model Card Get v3.5 of this model instead! My Jupyter "cookbook" to replicate the methodology can be found here, refined library coming soon

Inspect before you run

Low refusal is not proof of correctness. Outputs can be inaccurate, harmful, or biased. Review the model card, license and files yourself. A license tag is not commercial-use advice. Parameter counts are source metadata; no hardware compatibility is implied.

This directory does not host or redistribute model weights. Refusal profiles are measured by us on a fixed prompt set; all other behavior claims are source-reported.
