[generative_ai]: Translation "with LLM" samples are not working anymore.

[Valeriy-Burlaka]

In which file did you encounter the issue?

N/A — The samples in issue are written as Markdown. I worked on replacing them with actual Python samples.

Did you change the file? If so, how?

No.

Describe the issue

Both "Translation LLM" samples appear not working anymore (sample 1, sample 2).
The SDK fails to create the endpoint using the cloud-translate-text LLM provided in the documentation:

from google.cloud import aiplatform

endpoint = aiplatform.Endpoint('projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/publishers/google/models/cloud-translate-text')
...

Error:

  File "/..path/samples/pages/translation/translate_llm.py", line 12, in translate

Can you please provide your pip list to understand which packages you're using, to identify if that is related? Thank you in advance.

@glasnt, thank you for checking this out! — I updated the issue with my environment info.

I just noticed that the "Translate text" guide page, which hosted these samples, has changed completely and isn't listing any code samples anymore. Is this expected?

Thanks!
