A walk with fastai2 - Vision - Study Group and Online Lectures Megathread

@Srinivas it’s because you can’t download the pretrained model wherever you are at or it could be something on Colab’s side. I’m unsure. Wasn’t sure if it was an isolated incident. See here and my post below it:

HTTP error 403 downloading cnn

Hi, you can run the following command from colab, replacing the url with your model url: !cd /root/.cache/torch/checkpoints && curl -O https://download.pytorch.org/models/resnet50-19c8e357.pth This will download the model straight to colab, in the right directory. I’s much faster than downloading to disk. Hope it helps!

I had the same issue earlier
