The distinction between running an uncensored version of LLMs through a tool such as Ollama, and utilizing the default or censored ones, raises key considerations.

While this approach entails certain risks, the uncensored versions of LLMs offer notable advantages:

  1. Creativity and Diversity: Not bound by predefined rules, these models provide diverse and imaginative content.
  2. Unbiased Responses: By avoiding social or political biases, they could offer more honest and factual answers.
  3. User Freedom: Uncensored LLMs respect users’ freedom of choice, allowing exploration without censorship.
  4. Critical Thinking: These models challenge users’ thinking by presenting various perspectives.
  5. Open Dialogue: Encouraging questioning and verification, they foster transparent conversations.
