CyberTiel 35B-A3B’s uncensored 4-bit quant beats Opus 4.6 medium cleanly on real codebase issues, in 27% of the time Qwen3.8-27b medium takes.

Excerpt

The downside of uncensoring a model is that it is known to potentially damage it, but CyberTiel is an even more capable software engineer than its censored TielCoder base, while allowing offensive security research. This was achieved by quantizing with an improved imatrix, baked from a curated corpus of cybersecurity- and agentic software engineering work. In short, the small damage from abliteration on a full precision model is negligible under Q4 quantization, and the weights that the model ne
