A user on Reddit's r/LocalLLaMA community is questioning the effectiveness of Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence as a metric for evaluating the differences between an "abliterated" model and its base model. The user argues that KL divergence is flawed due to its multiple representations, dependence on specific evaluation prompts, and the common practice of using first-token KL to artificially inflate model performance. They are seeking community input on alternative or superior methods for measuring these model differences. AI
