I got 'ValueError: You have to specify either input_ids or inputs_embeds' when I am training GPT2 using huggingface Trainer
Below is the error code generatedValueError                                Traceback (most recent call last)

trainer=Trainer( model, args = trainArgs,train_dataset=dataset)As I am quite new using trainer I actually try to follow as closely to docs as possible and only change few thing such as dataset because I need to use local dataset but I make sure to import it to datasets.Dataset() to be the same as the format that docs require and changing some training arguments. Thank you

You haven’t processed your dataset: it only contains the raw texts and not the input IDs the model expects. Have a look at the training tutorial to see how you can tokenize it!

Ran into the same issue and this post was helpful.Looked into AutoTokenizer, which addressed the issue.
