    As much as I love Mozilla, I know they're going to censor it (sorry, the word is "alignment" now) the hell out of it to fit their perceived values. Luckily if it's open source then people will be able to train uncensored models

      What in the world would an "uncensored" model even imply? And give me a break, private platforms choosing to not platform something/someone isn't "censorship", you don't have a right to another's platform. Mozilla has always been a principled organization and they have never pretended to be apathetic fence-sitters.

        Anything that prevents it from my answering my query. If I ask it how to make me a bomb, I don't want it to be censored. It's gathering this from public data they don't own after all. I agree with Mozilla's principles, but also LLMs are tools and should be treated as such.

            Do gun manufacturers get in trouble when someone shoots somebody?

            Do car manufacturers get in trouble when someone runs somebody over?

            Do search engines get in trouble if they accidentally link to harmful sites?

            What about social media sites getting in trouble for users uploading illegal content?

            Mozilla doesn't need to host an uncensored model, but their open source AI should be able to be trained to uncensored. So I'm not asking them to host this themselves, which is an important distinction I should have made.

            Which uncensored LLMs exist already, so any argument about the damage they can cause is already possible.
