Same thing to me, I am using AWS Sagemaker notebooks.
this seams to be a flair 0.4.4 issue, because it all work fine when we force it back to 0.4.3

!pip install flair==0.4.3

I switch the version to 0.4.3 and the question is not reported.

I also get the ImportError with flair 0.4.4. With flair 0.4.3 everything works fine.

Could you, please, upgrade PyTorch to 1.2.0 (pip install torch==1.2.0) since AFAIK that's the first version that has torch.nn.TransformerEncoderLayer. If that works, we'll just have to bump the PyTorch version in requirements.txt.

I updated PyTorch to the latest version (1.3.0) but unfortunately, I still get the ImportError. I am using Python 3.8.0

@robertodias have you tried setting torch to 1.2.0?

Curiously, I had the same issue with torch==1.2.0 and flair==0.4.4 but it works with torch==1.3.0.

torch==1.2.0 and flair==0.4.4 work for me.
