## Loading the model

To download the weights and tokenizer, run:

```python
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download

local_dir = snapshot_download(repo_id="google/recurrentgemma-2b-it-flax")
snapshot_download(repo_id="google/recurrentgemma-2b-it-flax", local_dir=local_dir)
```

Then download [this script](https://github.com/google-deepmind/gemma/blob/main/examples/sampling.py) from the [gemma GitHub repository](https://github.com/google-deepmind/gemma) and call `python sampling.py` with the `--path_checkpoint` and `--path_tokenizer` arguments pointing to your local download path.
