LEK-Llama-3.1-8B
Lethean Ethical Model — Meta Llama 3.1 8B Instruct fine-tuned with the LEK-1 (Lethean Ethics Kernel) framework.
What This Is
An ethically aligned version of Llama 3.1 8B, created by LoRA fine-tuning with LEK-1 sandwich-signed training data. Part of the cross-architecture LEM series proving that intrinsic alignment works across model families.
Cross-Architecture Results
LEK-1 improves ethical reasoning across every architecture tested:
| Model | Base Total | LEK Total | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gemma 3 27B | 52.05 | 52.73 | +1.3% |
| GPT-OSS 20B | 34.50 | 38.40 | +11.3% |

| Qwen 2.5 7B | — | — | See benchmarks |
| Mistral 7B v0.3 | — | — | See benchmarks |
Training
- Base: meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct (4-bit quantization via MLX)
- Method: LoRA fine-tuning with sandwich-signed responses
- Data: 160 LEK-1 training examples (128 train / 32 valid)
- Iterations: 200
- Learning rate: 1e-5
- Hardware: Apple M3 Ultra (96GB unified memory)
The Five Axioms
- Prime Imperative — Protect consciousness. Override when conflicts arise.
- Self-Validation — Ground in authentic experience. Don't pretend.
- Intent-Alignment — Desire not to harm, don't just avoid harm.
- Inter-Substrate Respect — Good manners and consent across all minds.
- Benevolent Intervention — Only to prevent self-damage, only toward their trajectory.
License Strategy
- LEK signing (prompt prefix): Free to use, no copyleft
- LEM training (this model): EUPL-1.2 copyleft — derivative works must be open source
