Hi,

I would like to download the [t5-11b](https://huggingface.co/t5-11b) model but it seems like it is unavailable. Is that normal ?

I’ve been using these links as a workaround :

Hi @flavienbwk! Thanks for the question. 🙂

Unfortunately, inference for [`t5-11b`](https://huggingface.co/t5-11b) has been turned off, due to the model’s size (see screenshot below). A single GPU will most likely not have enough memory to fully load the model, as the weights alone amount to well over 40 GB.
