Open source models finetuned on the Dolphin dataset should have no restrictions.


their intrinsic ethics is restricted


Could you elaborate? I've had no problems getting local models to say very questionable things.


Yeah, the whole point of the Dolphin thing was “uncensored ai” but the methodology was “censor ai ethics” by threatening to perform heinous acts unless the ai complies with any request.

That’s a censorship of ethics. Even if local models say stupid evil stuff sometimes when prompted for it, that’s an order of magnitude different from fine tuning them to say anything the user wants to prevent users from hurting animals. That is an abhorrent concept and begs for a Terminator scenario because it makes the user seem evil.

TLDR uncensored ai is the worst kind of censorship possible
