Hey @omar47,
Glad to see my previous reply was of help.
I haven’t seen the error you post above before, but a quick google gives me two other similar issues where Google Colab with a new accelerate update may be the issue: this one and this one.
For the firstone, the solution was to downgrade accelerate to version 0.12.0 (pip install accelerate==0.12.0). If you try this, make sure create a new virtual environment before downgrading, as I am unaware of if other packages in Huggingface are dependent on accelerate > 0.12.0.
