Ajax

PewDiePie announced Ajax, a 9-billion-parameter uncensored model fine-tuned from Qwen 3.5 to run on home PCs inside his Odysseus workspace.

Ajax is built on Alibaba's open-source Qwen 3.5 and made uncensored with the open-source Heretic abliteration tool. It powers web search, browsing, email and calendar tasks in the self-hosted Odysseus app. He says OpenAI banned his account twice during development over distillation, and that he kept limits on requests to harm people.
