Set Hugging Face Access Token

Before working with GenAI Studio to create models, you will need to set up your Hugging Face token. This token is used to import datasets and load models from Hugging Face as well as push models to Hugging Face.

Gaining Access to the Llama 2 Model

To gain access to Llama 2, first visit the Meta website and request access to Llama using the same email address you use for your Hugging Face account. Upon approval, navigate to the Llama 2 model card and submit a request to Hugging Face to enable your access. Once both requests are processed, you will be able to work with the Llama 2 model with GenAI Studio.
