💎 Gemma 3 4B IT QAT Abliterated

Gemma 3 QAT Abliterated 1B • 4B • 12B • 27B

This is an uncensored version of google/gemma-3-4b-it-qat-q4_0-unquantized created with a new abliteration technique.
See this article to know more about abliteration.

This is a new, improved version that targets refusals with enhanced accuracy.

I recommend using these generation parameters: temperature=1.0, top_k=64, top_p=0.95.

✂️ Abliteration

image/png

The refusal direction is computed by comparing the residual streams between target (harmful) and baseline (harmless) samples.
The hidden states of target modules (e.g., o_proj) are orthogonalized to subtract this refusal direction with a given weight factor.
These weight factors follow a normal distribution with a certain spread and peak layer.
Modules can be iteratively orthogonalized in batches, or the refusal direction can be accumulated to save memory.

Finally, I used a hybrid evaluation with a dedicated test set to calculate the acceptance rate. This uses both a dictionary approach and NousResearch/Minos-v1.
The goal is to obtain an acceptance rate >90% and still produce coherent outputs.

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.
