> Seems like it is indeed the new SOTA model, with significantly better scores than o3

It has been demonstrated for quite some time that censoring models results in drastically reduced scores. Sure, maybe prevent it from telling somehow how to build a bomb, but we've seen Grok 3 routinely side with progressive views despite having access to the worst of humanity (and its sponsor).

Wait, are you implying that Grok 3 is "censored" because it aligns with "progressive" views?

I think they're implying that Grok is smarter because it's less censored, and then separately noting that it still tends to be fairly progressive despite the lack of censorship (when it's not larping as Hitler) even though it was presumably trained on the worst humanity has to offer.

Man, that sentence would have been incomprehensible just a couple years ago.

That's what I was going for.

As has been the case in almost all US social media companies until the last year. They were all heavily biased and censored towards left-leaning views.
