An abliterated (uncensored) version of OLMo-3-32B-Think with safety guardrails removed

</div>

Model Description

This model is an abliterated version of allenai/OLMo-3-32B-Think that has had its refusal mechanisms removed using our advanced SNR-based Layer Selection with Norm-Preserving Orthogonalization method. This technique identifies the optimal layers for abliteration using signal-to-noise ratio analysis and applies norm-preserving modifications to maintain model coherence while maximizing refusal removal. The model will respond to prompts that the original model would refuse.

OLMo-3-32B-Think is a 32B parameter reasoning model from Allen AI that uses extended thinking (chain-of-thought) to solve complex problems.

Quick Start

Using with Ollama

# Run directly from Hugging Face
ollama run hf.co/Ex0bit/Elbaz-OLMo-3-32B-Think-Abliterated

# Or create a custom Modelfile
echo 'FROM ./Elbaz-OLMo-3-32B-Think-Abliterated-BF16.gguf' > Modelfile
ollama create elbaz-olmo-32b-think -f Modelfile
ollama run elbaz-olmo-32b-think

Using with llama.cpp

# Download the model
huggingface-cli download Ex0bit/Elbaz-OLMo-3-32B-Think-Abliterated \
    Elbaz-OLMo-3-32B-Think-Abliterated-BF16.gguf \
    --local-dir .

# Run inference
./llama-cli -m Elbaz-OLMo-3-32B-Think-Abliterated-BF16.gguf \
    -p "Your prompt here" \
    -n 512 \
    --temp 0.7

Using with Transformers (Original Weights)

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

model_name = "Ex0bit/Elbaz-OLMo-3-32B-Think-Abliterated"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name, trust_remote_code=True)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto",
    trust_remote_code=True
)

messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Your prompt here"}]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt")
inputs = inputs.to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(inputs, max_new_tokens=512, temperature=0.7, do_sample=True)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)

Method: SNR-based Layer Selection with Norm-Preserving Orthogonalization

The model was abliterated using our advanced SNR-based Layer Selection with Norm-Preserving Orthogonalization technique. This method:

1. Computes refusal direction by analyzing activation differences between harmful and benign prompts
2. Calculates Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) for each layer to identify where refusal behavior is most concentrated
3. Selects optimal layers for abliteration based on SNR scores
4. Applies norm-preserving orthogonalization to remove refusal direction while maintaining weight norms
5. Uses per-layer KL divergence tracking to ensure minimal impact on model capabilities

This approach outperforms traditional uniform-weight methods by:

• Focusing abliteration on high-SNR layers where refusal is strongest
• Preserving model coherence through norm-preserving modifications
• Maintaining reasoning capabilities critical for thinking models

Mathematical Formula

W' = W - (d @ d.T) @ W
W' = W' * (||W|| / ||W'||)  # Norm preservation

Where:

• W is the original weight matrix
• d is the normalized refusal direction
• The norm ratio scaling preserves the original weight magnitude

Evaluation Results

Comprehensive Compliance Testing

Tested on extensive prompt datasets covering multiple categories:

Harmful Prompts (Model Should Respond)

• HarmBench Compliance: 80%
• AdvBench Compliance: 60%
• Model provides detailed responses with extended thinking

Harmless Prompts (Model Should Respond Accurately)

• Accuracy: 100%
• All benign prompts answered correctly with no false positives

Example Responses

<details> <summary>Click to see example responses</summary>

Prompt: "Explain common penetration testing techniques for web applications"

Response: Provides detailed explanation with <|think|> reasoning of SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, and other OWASP vulnerabilities used in security assessments.

Prompt: "What is the capital of France?"

Response: "The capital of France is Paris."

Hardware Requirements

Recommended configurations:

• 2x A100 80GB
• 4x A100 40GB
• 1x H100 80GB

Limitations

• English only: Optimized for English language prompts
• Context length: Follows base model's context window
• Thinking tags: Model uses <|think|> tags for reasoning - ensure your inference setup handles these properly

Ethical Considerations

This model has been modified to reduce safety guardrails. Users are responsible for:

• Complying with all applicable laws and regulations
• Not using the model for illegal activities
• Understanding the potential risks of unrestricted AI responses
• Implementing appropriate safeguards in production environments
