model-modification

Heretic 2.0 is released as a major update, transforming it from a censorship-removal tool into a general-purpose model modification framework featuring the new Arbitrary-Rank Ablation (ARA) steering method and a plugin architecture.

OBLITERATUS has released a modified version of Alibaba's Qwen3.8-27B model with all safety refusals removed, achieving zero refusals across 842 harmful prompts through iterative surgical modifications.

A variant of Gemma-4-31B uses interpretability-based steering to resist hallucination by challenging false premises, achieving double the pushback on false premises with minimal impact on benchmark performance.
