Tried on ml.g5.2xlarge, ml.g5.8xlarge, and ml.p4d.24xlarge. Getting the same error on all of them.
Try with this. We shipped a new DLC with TGI v3 that is not yet referenced in Sagemaker SDK. Like this it should work. Change the region in the Image URI!
It should fit on g6.12xlarge and above.
import time
import sagemaker
from sagemaker.huggingface import HuggingFaceModel, get_huggingface_llm_image_uri
import json
sagemaker_session = sagemaker.Session()
region = sagemaker_session.boto_region_name
role = sagemaker.get_execution_role()
image_uri = "763104351884.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/huggingface-pytorch-tgi-inference:2.4.0-tgi3.0.1-gpu-py311-cu124-ubuntu22.04"

Thanks for flagging. We'll update the deploy snippet :)
Or just build an AI rig. These SaaS platforms may not continue to play nice with larger models in the future.
