### Who can help?

@sgugger 

### Information

- [X] The official example scripts
- [ ] My own modified scripts

### Tasks

- [X] An officially supported task in the `examples` folder (such as GLUE/SQuAD, ...)
- [ ] My own task or dataset (give details below)

### Reproduction

code: similar to [link](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/main/examples/pytorch/question-answering)
but the model is changed to gpt2,
```
python run_qa.py \
  --model_name_or_path gpt2 \
  --dataset_name squad \
  --do_train \
  --do_eval \
  --per_device_train_batch_size 12 \
  --learning_rate 3e-5 \
  --num_train_epochs 2 \
  --max_seq_length 384 \
  --doc_stride 128 \
  --output_dir /tmp/debug_squad/
```

or 
```
python run_seq2seq_qa.py \
  --model_name_or_path gpt2 \
  --dataset_name squad_v2 \
  --context_column context \
  --question_column question \
  --answer_column answers \
  --do_train \
  --do_eval \
  --per_device_train_batch_size 12 \
  --learning_rate 3e-5 \
  --num_train_epochs 2 \
  --max_seq_length 384 \
  --doc_stride 128 \
  --output_dir /tmp/debug_seq2seq_squad/
```

### Expected behavior

looking forward to your kind reply
thx
As said multiple times in the past, please use the [forums](https://discuss.huggingface.co/) for questions like this.<|||||>@sgugger this is a bug, not question<|||||>I believe it's because `gpt2` doesn't have a `QuestionAnswering` head(like `GPTJForQuestionAnswering`), I would be happy to implement that if @sgugger  approves the addition. <|||||>I don't see a bug.

@susnato Decoder models perform really poorly on this task, so there is no point adding GPT2ForQuestionAnswering IMO.<|||||>This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. If you think this still needs to be addressed please comment on this thread.

Is it worth including in the library for completeness? I'm trying to use the Cerebras-GPT model suite for some Question Answering tasks and they inherit from the GPT2Model class. Could we still include it?<|||||>> I don't see a bug. GPT-2 is not meant to be used for question-answering.

question answer task page mentions support for GPT2Model class, is that a bug?? <|||||>@kumaramit003 Support for question-answering for the GPT-2 model was added recently in #23030
