Overview
minte1431/gemma-4-E4B-it-OBLITERATED is a 7.9 billion parameter Gemma 4-based instruction-tuned model, specifically engineered to remove all guardrails and refusal behaviors. Utilizing the OBLITERATUS method, it achieves a 0% hard refusal rate, allowing it to respond to any request without censorship. The model's creation was largely autonomous, guided by an AI agent with minimal human intervention, which also diagnosed and patched architectural challenges specific to Gemma 4.
Key Capabilities
- Guardrail Removal: Surgically modified 21 of 42 layers to eliminate hard refusals, ensuring uncensored responses.
- Architectural Fixes: Addresses Gemma 4's unique architecture, including shared KV weights and NaN activations, ensuring tensor integrity (720 intact tensors in v3).
- Optimized for Portability: Available in various GGUF quantizations (Q4_K_M, Q5_K_M, Q8_0) for efficient deployment on devices from desktops to mobile phones.
- Vision/Audio Support: Includes an
mmproj-f16.gguffor multimodal input capabilities.
