The notebook for Lesson 5 uses vertexai.language_models.TextGenerationModel.from_pretrained("text-bison@001"). Since the Bison text model family appears retired on Vertex AI, in my lab session, cells run, but no output is displayed. I think this also occurs for Lesson 4. I haven’t checked the rest yet.
I’ve notified the staff.
Thank you for reporting!
text-bison@001 is a legacy large language model from Google’s PaLM 2 family.
We’re working on updating this content. L4 is working as expected
it is just bison model that needs to be updated, we’re checking the best version model to replace that one for chatting!
We’ll let everyone knows through this channel when all is updated!
