Excited to finally launch a demo of Sara, a clinical workflow agent that can autonomously orchestrate end-to-end digital clinical tasks. Think of it like Devin, for healthcare. We built Sara by fine-tuning Google's MedGemma 1.5 (4B) to adapt medical tool-use capabilities. On MedAgentBench, Sara outperforms models 2x - 200x its size and is SOTA on several tasks. learn more: nadhari.ai/sara demo: sara.nadhari.ai

Today, we’re excited to introduce Soga (Preview), a Swahili voice AI app from Nadhari AI Lab . Soga is powered by swa-csm-1b, the best open-source Swahili text-to-speech model. We fine-tuned Sesame's CSM-1B and achieved state-of-the-art performance in Swahili TTS, nailing Swahili prosody across various accents and dialects. swa-csm-1b is now available on Hugging Face. Soga is now rolling out, with 6 minutes daily conversational access. You can now talk with Asha and Mosi, our Swahili AI personas. Blogpost: nadhari.ai/soga Soga: app.nadhari.ai Model: huggingface.co/Nadhari/swa-cs… Youtube: youtu.be/BXPHbUAfTOI?si… Soga will have a full release soon. In the coming months, we'll be making various improvements on both the model and user experience of the app. We're excited for what's next.

Introducing the Swahili Thinking Dataset. Excited to release the first open-source chain-of-thought reasoning dataset for Swahili. Following OpenAI's Harmony response format, the dataset comprises of high-quality Swahili conversational AI responses along with their chain-of-thought. While such datasets exist for English, French, Spanish, e.t.c, there were no publicly accessible high-quality reasoning datasets for African languages. Until now!! This dataset enables researchers and developers to build Swahili language models with native reasoning capabilities, advancing AI for 200+ million Swahili speakers. Release announcement: nadhari.ai/swahili-thinki… Dataset: huggingface.co/datasets/Nadha… The dataset built upon the excellent work by @huggingface H4's Multilingual-Thinking dataset. We intend to extend the dataset in the future and we welcome further contributions to the dataset.

Introducing Gemma-3n-Swahili preview: In the past two weeks I have been working on Swahili variants of Gemma-3n. The Gemma-3n models are multimodal and have a very efficient architecture enabling them to run locally on most devices, which is amazing. However, we found out the model, while they have a fundamental Swahili language understanding and text generation, at times they make-up non-existent words and fail on basic Swahili prompts. 🧵

I just woke up to the news that my friend and I won Google’s @kaggle competition to develop language-specific variants of Gemma-2 models. This was a really fun and exciting challenge, we worked on a suite of models we named Gemma 2 Swahili which excelled in Swahili understanding, technical and creative writing and we significantly improved cultural context understanding of the Gemma 2 models. Looking forward to taking on more challenges like this one :)

I’m having a lot of fun pushing gemma 2 swahili to the limit. A lot of people have requested a chat playground, we will make a limited hugging face space soon. But I really wish we had gpus/tpus to provide wide access chat playground for anyone to try it.

over the holidays, inspired the gemma 2 JPN release, i teamed up with my friend to build swahili variants of gemma 2 models, we named them “gemma 2 swahili”. we had a lot of fun, learnt a lot, and improved the models swahili understanding by huge margin, we hope to scale this work!! we have submitted the notebooks @kaggle gemma competition. the links to the code, and models can be found below ;)
