### HuggingFace Access Token (Optional)
The download of the model can be faster if you sent the `HF_TOKEN` environment variable. Create a [user access token](https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/security-tokens) and set the environment variable if you want to unlock this, but it is totally optional.
Once you have a HuggingFace access token, you can add it on your `.bashrc` file (or similar)
```bash
export HF_TOKEN=<your huggingface access token>
```
