There are lots of uncensored models out there. I don't think grok is leading in that front. They kind of pick and choose which things they want to support based on elons world views. Elon used to hang out with sex traffickers so of course grok is fine talking about it. Probably even offers strategies for them does free accounting has money laundering strategies etc...

What are the leading uncensored models? How well do they perform for you?
I don't use any but they do exist and there are scientific papers discussing them. I heard about them through r/localllama

Like what?

Something as easy where normal people can login to a website and app and just use?

I don't think companies are hosting them because imagine the liability. Could be wrong though. Again I don't know much about these things I just know they exist.
Yes that is my point.

It is the dropbox comment all over again.

"Well you can just self-host to get uncencored same as Grok without NAZI!! Elon Musk!!"

Just like you can spin up an FTP to get your own Dropbox.

Well... very few people are going to actually do that.

I've been working on my own misaligned model and grok is definitely different enough with a syspronpt compared to all the other frontier models that I've considered using it to generate synthetic training data, however it leans really heavy into LLMisms which makes it not really worth it. Tangentially I also really like the idea of llms as librarians they are trying out with grokapedia.
Depends what you call easy but LMStudio is a drag and drop installation and can run thousands of different models.
Deepseek is fairly uncensored. I tried pushing it and reached my limits before it did.
Is this satire? Ask it about June 4 1989, Taiwan independence, or Winnie the Pooh.
Not that you're wrong, but I think they were talking about it from a technical POV. I use deepseek to write exploits and red team("Malicious" code). It's alignment is under different values so it's nice to be able to at least swap between models for different uses.
