Topical Storm Uncensored (3B and 8B versions)

Topical issues in a sometimes stormy chat.
Topical Storm is a lightweight model focused on producing a natural chat session like those you might have with a friend via instant messenger or SMS. It is argumentative and uncensored rather than behaving like a traditional “helpful AI assistant”. The default template is fairly neutral, you can add to it if you want it to be more or less extreme. It will bring up topics for discussion and ask you follow-up questions.

Key Features

• Lightweight 3B version available: Performant even on less capable hardware
• Natural Conversation: No flowery or overly formal “assistant-like” responses
• Uncensored: Based on an abliterated version of Llama, allowing for more open discussion
• Topical: Engages naturally with current events and controversial subjects
• Authentic Expression: Capable of casual language including profanity

Use Cases

• Casual conversation and companionship
• Debate and discussion of current events
• Role-playing scenarios requiring natural dialogue

Usage Notes

• This is an uncensored model that may generate strong language or discuss controversial topics
• Outputs should be treated as conversational and fictional expressions for entertainment rather than authoritative statements or facts
• Model responses are designed to feel natural and personal rather than formal or “safe”

Limitations
