Hi,
unfortunately I still have this problem, although I use the latest datasets version 1.8.0.
I am trying to run the run_ner.py from transformers/examples/pytorch/token-classification at master · huggingface/transformers · GitHub 2 on Google Colab using a custom dataset. For a small set it does work but when using my dataset in its entirety I always get the following error:

Do you have any idea what could cause it? Or is there a workaround for this?
Sorry, I am a newbie to Huggingface…
Thank you!
