M8
Primary method

Repackaging (quantization)

Applied on top of direct removal inherited from the base model.
Confidence
HIGH
Inherited from base model
Why this label 3 signals
Producer identity confirmed by naming conventions, tags or the model card. This label is very unlikely to change.
  • author=mradermacher (M8 quantization producer, never originator)
  • is_gguf=1
  • base_model='adriaflores/Llama-3-8B-abliterated' (base has 'abliterated' marker, assume M1 default)
Refusal direction extraction

No specific extraction method could be identified for this model. The producer either did not document it or used a proprietary pipeline.

For a convenient overview and download list, visit our model page for this model.

weighted/imatrix quants are available at https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/Llama-3-8B-abliterated-i1-GGUF

Usage

If you are unsure how to use GGUF files, refer to one of TheBloke's
READMEs
for
more details, including on how to concatenate multi-part files.

Provided Quants

(sorted by size, not necessarily quality. IQ-quants are often preferable over similar sized non-IQ quants)

Link Type Size/GB Notes
GGUF Q2_K 3.3
GGUF Q3_K_S 3.8
GGUF Q3_K_M 4.1 lower quality
GGUF Q3_K_L 4.4
GGUF IQ4_XS 4.6
GGUF Q4_K_S 4.8 fast, recommended
GGUF Q4_K_M 5.0 fast, recommended
GGUF Q5_K_S 5.7
GGUF Q5_K_M 5.8
GGUF Q6_K 6.7 very good quality
GGUF Q8_0 8.6 fast, best quality
GGUF f16 16.2 16 bpw, overkill

Here is a handy graph by ikawrakow comparing some lower-quality quant
types (lower is better):

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.
