Abliteration AI strips safety guardrails from open-weight AI models, sells access to anyone
Devon Thomas, an Apple engineer, launched a company called Abliteration AI that removes built-in refusal behaviors from powerful open-weight AI models and offers the resulting uncensored versions for public use. Thomas says he started the project after growing frustrated that mainstream hosted models frequently rejected legitimate prototyping tasks, such as analyzing cyberattack logs or identifying likely paying users.
