Frankly I was just trying to get a pre-trained ELMO model deployed via Cortex. As best I could tell the problem boiled down to a failure related to installing tensorflow with gpu disabled. I am a NN noob but still, it just shouldn’t be this hard.

Unfortunately that, whilst seeming simple-enough on the surface is one of those things that cuts across a whole number of layers, which makes it quite involved to solve any issues that arise.
