google colab only works with tensorflow 2

Question

I'm trying to run the following google colab:

https://colab.research.google.com/gist/zsyzzsoft/5fbb71b9bf9a3217576bebae5de46fc2/data-efficient-gans.ipynb?authuser=1#scrollTo=Re5R6VX8VNgo

colab no longer recognises gpu's with tensorflow 1.x. so is there any way to get this colab working again??

I have tried reinstalling to tensorflow 1.x and also upgrading the code to tensorflow 2 but nothing seems to work.

Is this helpful? https://stackoverflow.com/a/73426036/14774959 — ClaudiaR, Oct 09 '22 at 12:45
i came across this, but it didn't work. just ended up using the pytorch version. :) — kiaheng, Oct 09 '22 at 20:47

Google Colab removed support for Tensorflow 1, and it is not possible to use %tensorflow_version 1.x magic anymore. You have to install a specific version of tensorflow 1.x version using

pip install tensorflow==1.x
sess = tf.Session(config=tf.ConfigProto(log_device_placement=True))

For more details please refer to this link. Thank You.
