[abhayshiravanthe]

Steps to duplicate

1. Clone the repo
2. serve the files using serve npm package
3. Open on Canary with Unsafe WebGPU enabled
4. Click on "Load GPT2 Model"

Current scenario - error on console Uncaught (in promise) SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'v', "version ht"... is not valid JSON

Expected - load the model successfully

Getting the same issue. Is this an issue with the main branch, or across the board?

You need to install Git LFS and pull the repository files through it.

More details here:

I have installed Git LFS and pulled all large files.

Check if it's still an issue on latest, but this is most likely a Git LFS problem.

[saram-aman]

you can do it using Windows PowerShell or cmd (if using Windows)

I'm not particularly familiar with node/npm/npx so I was running into the same issue. Wasn't related to Git LFS at all in my case, just created a batch file to launch locally with node using "npx serve" and it worked on clean install/clone. Thanks

Awesome!
