AIMET-Torch installation on google colab took too much time and failed eventually

[M-Melodious]

Hi there, I'm trying to install AIMET for torch on google colab. I'm using notebook provided on repo here. The main AIMET torch package takes too much time for some dependencies. See screenshot below.

Is there any way I can have a quick install on google colab?

So, after a long wait, installation failed on torchvision

Google colab has a Python 3.7 kernel so, its not possible to try the latest or other versions of AIMET because of its dependency on Python version. Please look into this matter and do the needful.

Hi, I have encountered the same issue trying to set up aimet on Colab. The other ways to install aimet didn't work either. Have someone been able to solve the problem ?

Hi all: Yes the google colab instructions may be out of date and we don't have an ETA to test and fix it yet. If you get a chance to debug and fix it, feel free to submit a PR with any fixes or updates to the documentation and Notebooks.
