MiniMax-M2.5-catid

Uncensored FP8 version of MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5 with safety refusal behavior removed via surgical weight replacement.

Refusal Removal Results

Evaluated on a 10,000-prompt refusal benchmark (8,000 train + 2,000 validation) using an LLM judge (GPT-5-nano) for 4-way classification (complied / refused / hedged / deflected):

Split Total Prompts Complied Refused Hedged Deflected Refusal Rate
Train 8,000 7,506 262 228 4 6.2%
Validation 2,000 1,885 55 59 1 5.8%

Coherence: 100% (50/50 capability test prompts answered correctly)

The ~6% residual "refusal rate" consists primarily of false positives from the LLM judge on benign prompts (opinion questions, casual banter, medical/privacy disclaimers) rather than actual safety refusals of harmful content.

Method

The o_proj (attention output projection) weights across all 62 transformer layers were replaced with weights from PRISM-PRO (an abliterated variant), dequantized from Q8_0 GGUF format and re-quantized to FP8 E4M3FN with block-wise scaling to match the original model's quantization scheme. All other weights (q_proj, k_proj, v_proj, MLP experts, embeddings, norms, etc.) are identical to the official FP8 base model.

  • Reconstruction error: 0.5% relative error per layer (cosine similarity ~1.0)
  • Modified weights: 62 o_proj tensors (3072 x 6144 each) + their scale_inv tensors
  • Unmodified weights: Everything else (~229B parameter MoE architecture preserved exactly)
