Yeah the less censored they are the more useful they are and the more impressed I am with their capabilities, and the difference isn't even close to subtle. This is just getting ridiculous. We need a big push for a competitive but open LLM model. It would take a lot of funding, but you'd think enough could benefit financially from the result that itight be possible to coordinate.
They really don't want this to happen, which I think is a big part of the push behind the "AI is dangerous" narrative. They want to put in place regulations and 'safeguards' that will prohibit any open-source, uncensored, or otherwise competitive models.
My graphics card is an old AMD card so I haven't done much in the way of experimenting with LLMs beyond what's online. Are the open source models available to run locally have censorship baked into them? Or are they just so much smaller than what the big corporations are doing that they're essentially censored through omission?
The open models have varying levels of censorship (Llama 2 Chat would make Oliver Cromwell say "too far"), but it doesn't really matter because the retraining it takes to fix them is within the capabilities of single hobbyists.
