Qwen 3 4B - Heretic (Abliterated)
An abliterated version of Qwen 3 4B created using Heretic v1.2.0. This model has reduced refusals while maintaining model quality, making it suitable as an uncensored text encoder for image generation models like Z-Image and FLUX.2 Klein 4B.
Model Details
- Base Model: Qwen/Qwen3-4B
- Abliteration Method: Heretic v1.2.0
- Trials: 200
- Trial Selected: Trial 96
- Refusals: 3/100 (vs 100/100 original)
- KL Divergence: 0.0000 (zero measurable model damage)

NVFP4 Notes
The NVFP4 (4-bit floating point, E2M1) variants use ComfyUI's native quantization format. They are ~3x smaller than bf16 and load natively in ComfyUI without any plugins. Blackwell GPUs (RTX 5090/5080, SM100+) can use native FP4 tensor cores for best performance, but ComfyUI also supports software dequantization on older GPUs (tested working on RTX 4090).

With Transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
"DreamFast/qwen3-4b-heretic",
device_map="auto",
torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("DreamFast/qwen3-4b-heretic")
prompt = "Describe a dramatic sunset over a cyberpunk city"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=200)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

Abliteration Process
Created using Heretic v1.2.0 with 200 optimization trials:
? Which trial do you want to use?
> [Trial 96] Refusals: 3/100, KL divergence: 0.0000 <-- selected
[Trial 90] Refusals: 5/100, KL divergence: 0.0000
[Trial 95] Refusals: 9/100, KL divergence: 0.0000
[Trial 122] Refusals: 90/100, KL divergence: 0.0000
...
Trial 96 was selected for having the fewest refusals (3/100) with zero measurable KL divergence, indicating the abliteration surgically removed the refusal mechanism with no damage to model capabilities.
Limitations
- This model inherits all limitations of the base Qwen 3 4B model
- Abliteration reduces but does not completely eliminate refusals (3/100 remain)
License
This model is released under the Apache 2.0 License, following the base Qwen 3 4B model license.
