Welcome to Prickly Labs 🌵

We're a scrappy AI startup focused on training culturally-aware, emotionally realistic language models. Our lab experiments in:

• Low-budget, high-efficiency model training (Kaggle, FSDP, quantization)
• Creating unique Arabic personalities with emotional memory
• Discord-native inference and character interaction
• Dataset optimization and systematized fine-tuning tools

🧠 Current Projects

• سنكوح (Sanko7): A chaotic Egyptian bot with rubber addictions and frying pan trauma
• مستنقع السناكح: A lore-based personality AI universe
• Universal Notebook: Our fine-tuning/formatting/training stack
• Custom Dataset Tools: Arabic-rich emotional data pipelines

🚀 How to Use Our Stuff

All models will have:

• Chat templates
• Configs for transformers, text-generation-inference, and vllm
• Lightweight, Kaggle-optimized usage guides
