@n00b_1o1 The error message indicates that the device number is negative.
You are using the old nlp.py library, there is a statement there

nums = fld.numericalize([text],device=None if torch.cuda.is_available() else -1)

If that sets the device to -1, then you get the Runtime error.

I think that nlp.py is deprecated now, so you may want to use text.py instead…
