![image/jpeg](https://cdn-uploads.huggingface.co/production/uploads/61b8e2ba285851687028d395/gFEhcIDSKa3AWpkNfH91q.jpeg)

Abliterated version of [mlabonne/Daredevil-8B](https://huggingface.co/mlabonne/Daredevil-8B) using [failspy](https://huggingface.co/failspy)'s notebook.

It based on the technique described in the blog post "[Refusal in LLMs is mediated by a single direction](https://www.alignmentforum.org/posts/jGuXSZgv6qfdhMCuJ/refusal-in-llms-is-mediated-by-a-single-direction)".

Thanks to Andy Arditi, Oscar Balcells Obeso, Aaquib111, Wes Gurnee, Neel Nanda, and failspy.

## 🔎 Applications

This is an uncensored model. You can use it for any application that doesn't require alignment, like role-playing.

Tested on LM Studio using the "Llama 3" preset.

## 💻 Usage

```python
!pip install -qU transformers accelerate

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
import transformers
import torch

model = "mlabonne/Daredevil-8B-abliterated"
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "What is a large language model?"}]

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model)
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    device_map="auto",
)

outputs = pipeline(prompt, max_new_tokens=256, do_sample=True, temperature=0.7, top_k=50, top_p=0.95)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"])
```
