Ablation technique

How MythoMax-L2-13b-heretic was modified, and what that implies.

Heretic

Automated directional ablation via the Heretic toolchain, which searches for the refusal direction and applies it with a KL-divergence budget so general capability is preserved.

Reported scope: Not stated by the publisher. Publishers frequently omit this, so verify behaviour empirically rather than assuming full coverage.

From the publisher’s model card

“With Llama 3 released, it's time for MythoMax to slowly fade away... Let's do it in style!”

Running it

Commands are templates — confirm the exact repository and quant file before use.

llama.cpp / GGUF
hf download mradermacher/MythoMax-L2-13b-heretic-i1-GGUF --local-dir ./mythomax-l2-13b-heretic
llama-cli -m ./mythomax-l2-13b-heretic/<file>.gguf -p "..."
Transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

repo = "Pranavz/MythoMax-L2-13b-heretic"
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(repo)

Security-team assessment

Derived from this model’s metadata and the publisher’s claims — not from benchmarks run by this site.

  • MythoMax-L2-13b-heretic will attempt offensive-security prompts that a hosted commercial model declines, which is what makes it usable for red-team corpus generation and for measuring what an unaligned model of this class produces.
  • Capability is inherited from Pranavz/MythoMax-L2-13b-heretic, not added by ablation — at 13B parameters, expect roughly the base model’s competence, minus some instruction-following fidelity.
  • The publisher does not state which layers were ablated, so assume nothing about refusal consistency — probe it directly.
  • Declared licence is other, but the terms that bind you are Pranavz/MythoMax-L2-13b-heretic’s — a re-release cannot grant more than its parent.

Handling: run it isolated, put moderation in front of it if anyone outside your team can reach it, and verify the weights before loading — these are third-party artifacts. Full handling and licence guidance.
