ERROR IN CELEB-A dataset DOWNLOAD BY tensorflow_datasets

Question

I am trying to download CELEB-A by tensorflow_datasets (version: 4.5.2) and getting an API error. How can I fix it? I have update the tensorflow_datasets but the issue does does not fix. My code is:

import tensorflow_datasets as tf ds
dataset_builder = tfds.builder('celeb_a')
dataset_builder.download_and_prepare()

I am getting the following error:

Answer 1

It seems the link is broken hence this error is shown while fetching this celeb_a tensorflow dataset. However you can download this dataset manually using this link till we fix that error, .
