The best way to decensor a DeepSeek model? Don’t try to decensor it.

Fine-tuned OpenThinker on OpenThoughts-114k, a dataset focused on reasoning tasks like math, coding, and graduate-level Q&A, with no political content. Despite using censored base models (Qwen), the fine-tuned OpenThinker-7B and OpenThinker-32B models became decensored without any explicit intervention. Unlike Perplexity, no custom fine-tuning was applied to remove censorship, yet the results remain uncensored.

It challenges assumptions about model safety and opens exciting new research directions. AI game is so on
