Topical Storm (8B) Uncensored

Topical Storm is an 8 billion parameter model from Gurubot, designed to simulate natural, informal chat conversations. Unlike traditional AI assistants, this model is uncensored and argumentative, engaging with current and controversial subjects in a style reminiscent of instant messenger or SMS exchanges. It is built on an abliterated version of Llama-3.1, allowing for open discussion and authentic expression, including casual language and profanity when appropriate.
