awras/awras-chat-v0
awras/awras-chat-v0 is a 4.3 billion parameter conversational language model developed by bahaeddine09, built on a Gemma3 4B architecture. It is specifically fine-tuned for Algerian Darija, the everyday spoken dialect of Algeria, making it the first chat release from the awras project focused on open Arabic dialect AI. The model is optimized for instruction following and conversational tasks in Darija, and it is recommended to use the unsloth library for optimal inference and ChatML formatting.

awras/awras-chat-v0: Algerian Darija Conversational Model
awras-chat-v0 is a 4.3 billion parameter conversational language model, developed by bahaeddine09, specifically designed for Algerian Darija, the spoken dialect of Algeria. This model represents the first chat release from the awras project, which aims to foster open Arabic dialect AI for the Algerian community.
Key Capabilities & Features
- Darija Specialization: Built on a Gemma3 4B architecture, it has undergone a two-phase fine-tuning process to first learn the nuances of the Darija language and then to excel at instruction following and conversational interactions.
- Conversational AI: Optimized for engaging in chat-based dialogues and responding to instructions in Algerian Darija.
- Optimized Inference: The model is designed to work efficiently with the
unslothlibrary, which is highly recommended for proper ChatML formatting and achieving optimal inference speeds.
When to Use This Model
- Algerian Darija Applications: Ideal for developers and researchers building applications that require natural language understanding and generation in Algerian Darija.
- Conversational Agents: Suitable for creating chatbots, virtual assistants, or interactive systems tailored for the Algerian context.
- Research in Dialectal Arabic: Valuable for studies and projects focusing on low-resource or dialectal Arabic language processing.
