I am trying to use this notebook ([https://colab.research.google.com/github/huggingface/notebooks/blob/master/examples/language\_modeling.ipynb](https://colab.research.google.com/github/huggingface/notebooks/blob/master/examples/language_modeling.ipynb)) to finetune and generate text with GPT-Neo using my own custom dataset. I uploaded my own text file to my dataset, but when trying to use it, it just gives me this error

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I tried to use this to load it

from datasets import load\_dataset

dataset = load\_dataset(“Trainmaster9977/zbakuman”)
