I got attribute error when loading the trianing\_args.bin using:

```auto
training_args = torch.load("model_path/training_args.bin")

```

Error report:

```auto

It looks like you are using a subclass of `TrainingArguments`, and that this subclass is not defined in the script you’re trying to run.
