The issue I get is just 401 error on my API requests to the Inference API, and few hours ago everything worked well.
I checked my account and tokens and everything is good.
I have created a new fine-grained token and tried it and got 401 error

I’m having the same issue with deepsite v2 as well. Can’t update thru the AI. Is this related?

It would be best to [ask the author of DeepSite about DeepSite](https://huggingface.co/spaces/enzostvs/deepsite/discussions). These two are APIs from different frameworks, so the cause is probably different.
