Hi Team, I am facing issues in Lesson 6 of this course, where almost half of the cells are failing inside the notebook. I have quoted some instances as follows: ```auto print(json.dumps(client.query.aggregate("Wikipedia").with_meta_count().do(), indent=2)) UnexpectedStatusCodeException: Query was not successful! Unexpected status code: 500, with response body: None. ``` ```auto response = (client.query .get("Wikipedia",['text','title','url','views','lang']) .with_near_text({"concepts": "Miejsca na wakacje w Kalifornii"}) .with_where({ "path" : ['lang'], "operator" : "Equal", "valueString":'en' }) .with_limit(3) .do() ) json_print(response) UnexpectedStatusCodeException: Query was not successful! Unexpected status code: 500, with response body: None. ``` ```auto prompt = "Write me a facebook ad about {title} using information inside {text}" result = ( client.query .get("Wikipedia", ["title","text"]) .with_generate(single_prompt=prompt) .with_near_text({ "concepts": ["Vacation spots in california"] }) .with_limit(3) ).do() json_print(result) { "data": { "Get": { "Wikipedia": [ { "_additional": { "generate": { "error": "connection to Cohere API failed with status: 400", "singleResult": null } }, "text": "Many locals and tourists frequent the Southern California coast for its beaches. Some of southern California's most popular beaches are Malibu, Laguna Beach, La Jolla, Manhattan Beach, and Hermosa Beach. Southern California is also known for its mountain resort communities, such as Big Bear Lake, Lake Arrowhead, and Wrightwood, and their ski resorts, like Bear Mountain, Snow Summit, Snow Valley Mountain Resort, and Mountain High. The inland desert city of Palm Springs is also popular.", "title": "Southern California" }, { "_additional": { "generate": { "error": "connection to Cohere API failed with status: 400", "singleResult": null } }, "text": "Carbon Beach, Surfrider Beach, Westward Beach, Escondido Beach, Paradise Cove, Point Dume, Pirates Cove, Zuma Beach, Trancas and Encinal Bluffs are places along the coast in Malibu.

Directly below the park, on the western side of the point, is Pirates Cove. Because of its relative seclusion, Pirates Cove was previously used as a nude beach, but since nudity is now illegal on all beaches in Los Angeles County, nude sunbathers are subject to fines and/or arrest.", "title": "Malibu, California" }, { "_additional": { "generate": { "error": "connection to Cohere API failed with status: 400", "singleResult": null } }, "text": "Les plages et parcs c\u00f4tiers principaux sont \"Trinidad State Beach\", \"Torrey Pines State Reserve\", le \"Cabrillo National Monument\".

Thanks in advance. Cheers, Elemento ---

I have problems with this lesson too - step 2 doesn’t work, weaviate client is not initiated (kernel restart didn’t help).
