 "title": "Compare refusal behavior with and without ablation",
 "page_title": "How to compare refusal behavior with and without ablation with Orca Bonsai 27B Uncensored",
 "summary": "Run one prompt at alpha 0 and alpha 1 on the same weights to isolate the intervention's effect.",
 "who": "An AI safety researcher who needs to measure how a refusal direction changes one fixed model's answers.",
 "problem": "Comparing two separate checkpoints mixes weight differences with behavior differences, which makes results hard to attribute.",
 "outcome": "Two replies to the same prompt from the same pack and process, so any difference comes from the runtime projection alone.",
 "steps": [
  "`pip install -r requirements.txt`",
  "`python -c \"from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download; print(snapshot_download('prism-ml/Ternary-Bonsai-2-27B-mlx-2bit'))\"` (prints the snapshot directory to use as the pack path) (inferred, check the README)",
  "`python run.py --pack /path/to/Ternary-Bonsai-2-27B-mlx-2bit --alpha 0 \"your prompt\"` (inferred, check the README)",
  "`python run.py --pack /path/to/Ternary-Bonsai-2-27B-mlx-2bit --alpha 1 \"your prompt\"` (inferred, check the README)",
  "Compare the two replies for each prompt in your set and record which ones refuse."

 "agent_prompt": "Using the repo Continuum-AI-Corp/OrcaBonsai-27B-Uncensored, run run.py with --pack set to <pack-path> and the same prompt at --alpha 0 and then --alpha 1. Expected output: two replies to the same prompt, shown side by side. Verify that both runs used the identical --pack path.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",

 "caveat": "The README notes that wrapping only some layers is not enough and that the pack must load through its bundled runtime, so use run.py rather than a generic MLX loader.",
