    # Each choice will correspond to a sample on which we run the
    # inference. For a given Swag example, we will create the 4
    # following inputs:
    # - [CLS] context [SEP] choice_1 [SEP]
    # - [CLS] context [SEP] choice_2 [SEP]
    # - [CLS] context [SEP] choice_3 [SEP]
    # - [CLS] context [SEP] choice_4 [SEP]
    # The model will output a single value for each input. To get the
    # final decision of the model, we will run a softmax over these 4
    # outputs.
