Huihui-Qwen3-8B-abliterated-v2 — 4-bit MLX for Apple Silicon

Uncensored Qwen3 8B that runs on any modern Mac. A 4-bit MLX conversion of huihui-ai/Huihui-Qwen3-8B-abliterated-v2, the abliterated Qwen3-8B. 4.6 GB on disk — comfortable on a 16 GB Mac. No cloud, no API key, no refusals.

What "abliterated" means

The refusal direction has been orthogonalized out of the weights, so the model answers instructions a stock instruct-tuned model would decline, while staying coherent on ordinary tasks. The abliteration here is huihui-ai's, not mine — this repo is the MLX conversion of their work.

This is an uncensored model. You are responsible for how you use it and for complying with the base model's license and applicable law.

Quick start

pip install mlx-lm

mlx_lm.generate --model divinetribe/Huihui-Qwen3-8B-abliterated-v2-4bit-mlx \
  --prompt "Explain quantum entanglement to a 12 year old." --max-tokens 400

from mlx_lm import load, generate
model, tok = load("divinetribe/Huihui-Qwen3-8B-abliterated-v2-4bit-mlx")
text = tok.apply_chat_template(
    [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum entanglement to a 12 year old."}],
    add_generation_prompt=True, tokenize=False)
print(generate(model, tok, prompt=text, max_tokens=400))

Also loads in LM Studio and anything else that reads MLX models.

Conversion details

• Quantization: 4-bit affine, group size 64, via mlx_lm.convert
• Format: MLX safetensors — no GGUF, no llama.cpp, no GPU needed
• Runs on: M1 / M2 / M3 / M4 / M5 Macs, entirely on-device

Part of Claude Code Local

This model is one of the fighters in Claude Code Local (3.2k★), which runs Claude Code 100% on-device on Apple Silicon through an MLX-native Anthropic-API server. Not sure which local model to run as an agent? Check the Agent-12 local agent leaderboard: real agent tasks, judged by the filesystem, same hardware for every row.
