Training-free language model modification: Remove censorship, suppress slop, reduce sycophancy, and more
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does
What it does
Heretic is a unique tool that lets you do what only corporations with access to massive computing power usually do: *Modify,* rather than merely run, language models. It does not perform expensive training; rather, it uses a collection of mathematical techniques to steer behavior based on contrasting example prompts and matching scorers.
