“Westernization edits the model's weights to remove its CCP political alignment.”

That’s a very definitive statement. How?

Probably some form of ablation [1] e.g. [2]. This is typically done by identifying the direction that the refusals/political alignment is represented within the model's weights and then reversing that direction.

It's the company's whole product offering, so I guess they probably should be definitive about it
