ImportError: cannot import name 'calc_banned_bad_words_ids' from 'transformers.generation_utils'

Description

When following the installation guide all goes well. However, if I attempt to run
python -m scripts.run_prompts_experiment --help
(after changing the script name from run_prompts_experiments to run_prompts_experiment) I get the error shown below. Aparently the generations_util.py script does not contain a method called "calc_banned_bad_words_ids".

Things I have tried

I thought this was a versioning issue. So I attempted to install a prior version of transformers (4.12.5) but the error was the same

I also tried to (in the most hacky way, please don't judge) to add the method to the file itself in hopes of getting a different type of error... However I got another missing method error.

@jakeazcona I am having the same error. Were you able to fix it?

This has been asked ages ago but I'm also running into this error. Did you ever get it fixed? Would really appreciate any pointers!
