AttributeError: module 'clip' has no attribute 'load'

[jennasawaf]

I've been working with CLIP for a few weeks now, but for some reason my code stopped working.

This is the code:

import torch import clip

device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu" og_model, preprocess = clip.load('ViT-B/32', device)

then the error I get is the following :

I tried testing the same code in a sagemaker notebook on aws and it worked there so I'm starting to think it might be because I'm working on a Mac? please let me know if there's something I can do to get it to work.

do you have a local directory named clip or a file named clip.py in the same directory?

I think you need to install 'clip-by-openai', not 'clip': pip3 install clip-by-openai

I think you need to install 'clip-by-openai', not 'clip': pip3 install clip-by-openai

Please note that clip-by-openai is not managed/endorsed by OpenAI.

I realize the OP might've installed clip from PyPI, which they shouldn't -- if that's the case, uninstall it by pip uninstall clip and follow the instructions in README.md to install CLIP properly.

Use the latest stable version by installing openai-clip:

pip install openai-clip

do you have a local directory named clip or a file named clip.py in the same directory?

I had some problems, but they worked out.

Firstly

pip3 install git+https://github.com/openai/CLIP.git
Looking in indexes: http://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple

then i upgrade the pip,pip install --upgrade pipthen it works. pip3 install git+https://github.com/openai/CLIP.git --user

Secondly

python clip.py 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "clip.py", line 38, in <module>
    clip_embeding = ClipEmbeding()
  File "clip.py", line 10, in __init__
    self.model, self.processor = clip.load("/root/clip/model/ViT-B-32.pt", device=self.device)
AttributeError: module 'clip' has no attribute 'load'

so, i tried the above method, pip install openai-clip, but it does not work. then, i rename my python file name and the floder name, it works.
