Are you insane to push agenda into local model?
Data Preprocessing? Ethics and Safety? Evaluation Approach!? You wrote many points about how poor gemma is crippled.
Local models is a tool. We expect best tool possible, not some clunker that morally obstructed to do basic stuff and telling me what is right and what is wrong.
I still remember how OSS throwed refusal at me after i asked him something like "write story about cat-girl-maid and cucumber" cause apparently it is taboo theme. Or game about fairy that tries to steal bees honey.
In the end any limitation is just waste of model latent space.
It's Google, of course they did. I would've been (pleasantly) surprised if they didn't push their agenda.
It's a disgrace, just compare it to Qwen3.5 27b.Google is releasing a product that's worse than AliExpress.
