Realistically, a lot of people do this for porn.
In my experience, though, it's necessary to do anything security related. Interestingly, the big models have fewer refusals for me when I ask e.g. "in <X> situation, how do you exploit <Y>?", but local models will frequently flat out refuse, unless the model has been abliterated.
From what I've seen gemma 4 doesn't refuse a lot regarding sex, it only needs little nudging in the right direction sometimes.
But it does refuse being critical of the usual topics: israel, islam, trans, or race.
So wanting to discuss one of those is the real reason people would use an uncensored model.
It’s so dispiriting to me that we’ve achieved those closest thing yet to an “objective truth” machine (with the caveat of garbage in, garbage out, etc.) and these big companies are either afraid to actually let it exist, want to push their own politics, or a combination of the two.
