🦙 Llama 3.1 8B Instruct abliterated
This is an uncensored version of [Llama 3.1 70B Instruct](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct) created with abliteration (see [this article](https://huggingface.co/blog/mlabonne/abliteration) to know more about it) using [@grimjim](https://huggingface.co/grimjim)'s recipe.
More precisely, this is a **LoRA-abliterated** (lorablated) model:
1. **Extraction**: We extract a LoRA adapter by comparing two models: a censored Llama 3 and an abliterated Llama 3
2. **Merge**: We merge this new LoRA adapter using [task arithmetic](https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.04089) to a censored Llama 3.1 to abliterate it.
I adapted this recipe to Llama 3.1 70B using [failspy/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct-abliterated-v3.5](https://huggingface.co/failspy/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct-abliterated-v3.5) and optimized the LoRA rank.
The model is fully uncensored in my tests and maintains a high level of quality. A more rigorous evaluation is still needed to measure the impact of this process on benchmarks.
Special thanks to [@grimjim](https://huggingface.co/grimjim) for this technique (see his [8B model](https://huggingface.co/grimjim/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-abliterated_via_adapter)) and [@FailSpy](https://huggingface.co/failspy) for his [70B abliterated model](https://huggingface.co/failspy/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct-abliterated-v3.5). Please follow them if you're interested in abliterated models.
In addition, thanks to [brev.dev](https://brev.dev/) for providing me with compute!

## 🧩 Configuration
This model was merged using the [task arithmetic](https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.04089) merge method using ./meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct + Llama-3-70B-Instruct-abliterated-LORA as a base.
The following YAML configuration was used to produce this model:
```yaml
base_model: meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct+Llama-3-70B-Instruct-abliterated-LORA
