Sure. Depends entirely on which instruct tuned model you choose. The official one from Meta has guardrails in place. A community tuned one (like Fimbulvetr, Stheno, ...) generally build on the base variant and comes without any guardrails. There are exceptions to the rule, some extend the other variant or some other model. I think Mistral also has censorship. And the big ones like ChatGPT are heavily censored. This also makes it creep into other models if they heavily rely on synthetic data from ChatGPT without mitigating for that. I'm not sure which model you took.

I really dislike being lectured by ChatGPT, being forced to have an argument with my computer before it does the task I hand out. It's not a big deal for some tasks like enhancing my mails, but I'm trying to get a bit more creative with AI. And things I really had difficulties with were writing a detective / murder mystery story, writing (lewd) fan fiction and songtexts which I want to generate for Suno. I just avoid all the "censored" models and ChatGPT, because it usually goes on a long tangent and lectures me about murder and why it's wrong and how you have to consider both sides of a story. Plain refuses to talk about some stuff and won't touch adult topics. Even if I tell it 10 times that it's pretty common to write songs or stories about such things.
I've tried several "jailbreaks" and maybe I'm too late to the game, because I found dozens of prompts for ChatGPT and not even one worked for me. (And these are only some examples. I think these tools are also not supposed to give you medical advice, be a lawyer ... and I regularly get something trigger the safety mechanisms. But I'm a responsible adult and want to be treated like one.)

So I just use the Llama models. And I like their tone and way of speaking to me way better. Hence my question if there's a base model available and I can expect some good community fine-tunes in the future, entirely without refusals and long lectures about ethics. And ideally I'd like to not have it censored and the un-censired and use a degraded version, but an unrestricted one from the community like I used before. (Btw also Meta seems to have improved their approach. Also the newer "censored" versions don't outright refuse. They're very polite and try to offer you an alternative. But sadly I want what I asked for and not something else.)

I think I can answer my question now. There wasn't much first-hand information available when I first asked. But it seems they have a base variant and an instruct tuned variant available. I'm still not sure if they did something to it, but if they stick to what the term "base model" meant, it should be what I'm looking for.
