Hi @murali00150 Thanks for posting! The model [openai-community/gpt2 · Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/openai-community/gpt2) is not available to use with Inference Providers at this time, though on the model page you can request provider support for it!

Note that other models you’re using might not be available with HF Inference but instead with one of the many other Inference Providers. The model page will also show you which providers are available.

If needed, you can also deploy the gpt2 model with Inference Endpoints (dedicated) instead: [https://endpoints.huggingface.co](https://endpoints.huggingface.co).

To see which models are available to use with HF Inference, check out our filtered search [here](https://huggingface.co/models?inference_provider=hf-inference&sort=trending)!
