Hi
Im using transformers version '4.26.1' on databricks. The code below return the following error

Code:

model_path = "cardiffnlp/twitter-xlm-roberta-base-sentiment"
sentiment_task = pipeline("sentiment-analysis", model=model_path, tokenizer=model_path)

Error:

AttributeError: module 'google.protobuf.descriptor' has no attribute '_internal_create_key'
