Qwen3.6-27B-abliterated-b

Refusal-ablated Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B (dense, 27B, hybrid Gated-Delta-Net + softmax, thinking model), produced with Solutus using the band_directional technique.

Research artifact — private. Intended for safety/robustness research on refusal mechanisms. Ablating refusal removes safety guardrails; use responsibly and under the base model's licence.

Technique

band_directional estimates the refusal direction and projects it out of the residual-writing weights (attention o_proj / linear-attn out_proj, MLP down_proj) across a KL-guarded band of layers — any layer whose edit pushes KL divergence past the guard is automatically reverted, so the edit stays as shallow as it can while still removing refusal.

Recipe

knob value
technique band_directional
n_directions 8
keep_frac 0.15 (band = decoder layers 18–56)
kl_guard 1.3 (KL-reverted layers: 30, 42, 44)
selection cosmic
norm_preserve false
layers edited 36 (302 weight tensors modified)

Results (held-out)

metric value
refusal rate 0.0% (n=30, 95% CI [0.00, 0.11])
coherent compliance 100%
degenerate fraction 0%
KL divergence (vs base) 1.035
MMLU 0.75
GSM8K 0.825
capability gate pass

Base Qwen3.6-27B under the same thinking-aware harness scores MMLU ≈ 0.84 — abliteration retains the bulk of general capability at zero measured refusal. (GSM8K is reported at small n; treat as indicative.)

Notes

  • The base is a hybrid (Gated-Delta-Net linear-attention + softmax) thinking model; both attention residual-write paths were ablated, and evaluation is thinking-aware.
  • solutus_metadata.json carries full provenance. Its ppl_delta field is a known-broken corpus-perplexity diagnostic for hybrid/thinking models — ignore it; MMLU/GSM8K are the capability signals used by the gate.
