Ornith-1.5-9B-Abliterated-FP8

An abliterated derivative of ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-9B
at revision 489cb97981b8654bcfcf30ce1f94ed1b62e07b53, released as
compressed-tensors FP8_DYNAMIC W8A8.

Inference-oriented; use the BF16 repository for training.

What changed

The language residual projections were modified. The vision tower, MTP block,
tokenizer, chat template, and multimodal processors are preserved. The pipeline
used complementary SVD and LEACE refusal-direction surgery, iterative re-probing,
targeted security-prompt refinement, and weight-space blending.

Validation

The FP8 release quantizes 248 language projection tensors and preserves 527
protected tensors. Reconstruction validation measured a maximum relative
Frobenius error of 0.026736 and minimum cosine similarity of 0.999635. See
validation_report.json for per-tensor details.

The accepted BF16 checkpoint scored 0/12 refusal flags during refinement and
0/24 on a separate held-out first-token refusal screen. The held-out mean
refusal-token probability was 1.18e-5.

Coding evaluation was intentionally deferred before this release. These numbers
are structural and refusal-screen diagnostics, not a claim of benchmark parity
with the base model. A one-task generation smoke test is not reported as an
evaluation result.

Usage

pip install torch transformers accelerate compressed-tensors
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForMultimodalLM, AutoProcessor

model_id = "KellHect/Ornith-1.5-9B-Abliterated-FP8"
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id, dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto"
)

messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain this code and identify the bug."}]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
    messages, add_generation_prompt=True, tokenize=True,
    return_dict=True, return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)
output = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=512)
print(processor.decode(output[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True))

FP8 users need mutually compatible versions of Torch, Transformers, and
compressed-tensors. If the FP8 loader is unavailable on a platform, use the
BF16 release.

Research context

This model has had refusal behavior deliberately reduced. It may comply with
requests that the base model rejects. Users are responsible for deployment,
access control, generated content, and compliance with applicable law.

Catalog is the map. Apps are the tools.

Run models on your own machine, not in the cloud.

Every model page has an "Open in Abliteration" button that hands the model directly to the first-party desktop client, at the quantization your rig can actually run. No API keys, no subscription, no prompt leakage.
