When does this happen?

IF ValueError: Unrecognized model when loading a model that lacks a `model_type` key in its config.json.

How others solved it

THEN Edit the model's config.json to include a valid `model_type` key corresponding to the model architecture (e.g., `"model_type": "bert"` for BERT-like models). If the model is on the Hugging Face Hub and you cannot modify it, either fork the repository to add the key, or temporarily downgrade transformers to version 4.57.1 which does not enforce this requirement. Always ensure `trust_remote_code=True` if the model uses custom code.
