How’s this even possible? Shouldnt they have backup servers running? My whole app relies on hugging face api.

Is there any work around?

For real? Surely, they would have on-call devs for sure / pagerduty alerts or something?

In the case of 401, there may be a token-related error or a problem with the gated model, so please refer to this post. However, at the moment, it may be due to a server error.😅
