Notes -
Someone from the deep AI theorists here - is it possible to distill censored model into uncensored? What I mean by that - if a model is reluctant to go deep into the fun parts of the highly energetic nitrochemistry - just by asking other unrelated benign chemistry questions to figure out the forbidden knowledge? Not by tricking or something. Just normal use.
To some extent yes, you can always rederive things for yourself, in the same way that you could from a bunch of chemistry textbooks. In practice, censored topics create a kind of conceptual dead zone. In the same way that a model with the Golden Gate Bridge concept dialled up started finding ways to slip it into every conversation no matter how strained, censored models will smoothly elide anything conceptually close to naughtiness.
In practice, it’s easier to take an open source model and abliterate it by turning off the neurons that activate when you discuss censored topics.
