What a weird and ridiculous thing to do... Its similiar to someone taking way too much interest in dismembering NPCs in a video game.

OTOH, I am a little worried that some people think these models have some kind of hidden consciousness or thought. In this specific case, I'm pretty confident Qwen 3 1.7B and 4B don't contain anything close to relatable definitions of consciousness. These models are not experiencing actual "torture".
