How to Choose the Best AI Model for My Writing?

May 11, 2025 3 answers
Asked by WanderingStar99
Hey everyone! I'm just starting out with AI and I'm using OpenRouter to explore different models. I'm wondering how I can determine which models are good or creative before I actually try them out. For my first question, I know that context size relates to the model's memory, but what really influences its 'intelligence'? Is there a way to assess this before usage? I primarily want to use these models to help with my writing projects (nothing commercial, just for family and friends). For my second question, how can I find out if a model is uncensored? I write primarily fantasy, sometimes touching on dark themes, and I've noticed many models tend to shy away from open combat and other intense topics. Thanks in advance for your help! Hope you all have a great day!

If you want to check out different models, platforms like AI Ranker offer leaderboard scores based on benchmarks. As for intelligence, the o4 mini high ranks as the smartest overall right now, but you might want to choose a model with a vast context window for your writing. Regarding uncensored content, Deepseek and Grok are solid choices for creative writing without heavy filters.

Honestly, I think most of the well-known models, like OpenAI, have become more censored recently. If you want something more straightforward for dark fantasy, look at Deepseek or Grok. They tend to handle creative and uncensored material better than some others. You can also use various benchmarks available online like Lmarena to assess their performance.

To gauge the best AI models, I'd suggest trying out a bunch! Make a list of varied prompts and watch how each model responds. Generally, more parameters in a model indicate higher 'intelligence', but remember that each is trained differently. You can filter models by categories in OpenRouter, which might help too! As for finding uncensored models, some self-hosted options exist that might fit your needs better if you're focusing on darker themes.
