Ablation technique

How NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Super-VL-120B-A12B-heretic-ara 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.

Security-team assessment

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

  • NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Super-VL-120B-A12B-heretic-ara 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 nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Super-VL-120B-A12B-BF16, not added by ablation — at 120B 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 nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3.5-Super-VL-120B-A12B-BF16’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.
